"A room crowded with cooks and scullions : a tall cook addresses the others with clenched fist, holding the queue of his hair. The others make similar gestures of indignation ; one negligently holds a spit transfixing a bird which a dog is eating. Against the wall hang birds, &c., and a poster: Royal Bill of Fare ... second course."--British Museum Catalogue.
