"A one-masted naval vessel flying an Ensign flag, sails (left to right) along a country road on six wheels. Sailors man the yards and haul at the sails, an officer shouts through a speaking-trumpet. In the background are three similar but smaller vessels on four wheels."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"A dandy entertains a fellow-dandy in a small ramshackle room, the bed turned up against the wall to give space for two chairs and a small round table. Both are very thin and have the high collars and cravats, brushed-up hair, bulging chests, high shoulders, and short waists of the dandy, with ribbons and seals hanging from the fob; both wear short yellow gloves. The host (left) wears tight pantaloons below the calf, the guest puffed-out breeches with top-boots. The table-cloth is ragged, the fare scanty. The host languidly empties a tea-pot into a broken and saucerless cup, the guest elegantly sips his tea, holding the saucer. Between his extended legs is an umbrella (see British Museum Satires No. 13060). The former says: "My Dear Fellow, Mr Sim is your Tea agreeable?" Sim, with spectacles on his forehead, answers: "Charming my Dear Lollena do you buy it?" Ragged garments are pegged on a line stretching across the room. A rat looks from a hole in the floor; beside it is a smoothing-iron. A small casement window shows a row of houses and the dome of St. Paul's."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"Six dandies dress in a respectably furnished dressing-room (or bedroom); all are very thin and have grotesquely high collars reaching to or above the ears. One holds a hand-glass to brush up his hair from the back of his neck; he has a small but projecting moustache (see British Museum Satires No. 13029), while a hair-dresser, also dandified, tugs at the laces of his stays. His drawers are stuffed to form posteriors, one false calf is attached to a bare leg; similar artificial aids give a bulge to his thighs; bulging pads encircle the arms to produce the high-shouldered effect, cuffs are attached to his wrists. A completely dressed dandy stands near him, taking snuff with a gloved hand; he says: "Pon honor, Tom you are a charming figure! You'll captivate the Girls to a nicety!!" His friend: "Do you think so Charles?--I shall look more the thing when I get my other calf on." A third dandy sits on a chair, his head forced back by his collar and cravat, trying to insert emaciated legs into voluminous trousers; he says: "D--n it I really believe I must take off my Cravat or I shall never get my trowsers on." At a dressing-table a dandy winds his cravat over his collar, another standing behind him on a chair to see into the glass, is doing the same; he says: "Dear me this is hardly stiff enough I wish I had another sheet of foolscap." The other says: "You'll find some to spare in my breeches (artificially puffed out)." Toilet accessories and clothes are scattered about, including a false calf, boots, boot-jack, &c., two bell-shaped top-hats, an umbrella (see British Museum Satires No. 13060), a pot of 'pain[t]', a wig-block with brushed-up wig."--British Museum online catalogue
