Known for his keen eye for social satire and his ability to capture the essence of 18th and early 19th-century British life, Rowlandson's works often provide a humorous yet incisive commentary on contemporary society. This particular etching is no exception, as it delves into the theme of smuggling, a prevalent issue during the period.

The etching depicts a scene brimming with activity and character, showcasing Rowlandson's signature style of exaggerated expressions and dynamic compositions. The central figure, presumably the smuggler, is surrounded by a bustling crowd, each individual rendered with meticulous attention to detail and a touch of caricature. The hand-colouring adds a vibrant dimension to the piece, enhancing the visual impact and bringing the scene to life.

Rowlandson's work often reflected the socio-political climate of his time, and "Rigging Out A Smuggler" is no different.
