In his right is a paper inscribed 'Oddities Wags'. On each side of the harpsichord is a tripod supporting a lighted candle-sconce. He is giving a musical entertainment. In the text he is ridiculed as Petronius Broadgrin, noted for consummate effrontery, and he is recommended the works of Joe Miller as a repertory of jokes.
