"Description of a Boxing Match, 1812" is a satirical print by the British artist Thomas Rowlandson, known for his caricatures and social satire. The work is a vivid depiction of a boxing match, capturing the raw energy and chaotic atmosphere of early 19th-century prizefighting, a popular sport among all social classes in Georgian England. Rowlandson's piece is not merely a representation of the sport but also a commentary on the society of his time, illustrating the diverse audience that such events attracted, from the aristocracy to the working class.

The print showcases Rowlandson's characteristic style, with its lively line work, attention to detail, and use of watercolors. It portrays the intensity of the fighters and the fervor of the spectators, who are depicted with exaggerated expressions and postures, a hallmark of Rowlandson's approach to caricature. The scene is likely set in one of the open spaces around London, where such matches were commonly held, and it reflects the unregulated nature of boxing during this period, before the establishment of the Queensberry Rules later in the century.

"Description of a Boxing Match, 1812" serves as an important cultural artifact, providing insight into the customs and entertainment of the Regency era.
