- Description:
- Two newly arrived Frenchmen meet on the pavement outside the door of the White Bear (Piccadilly). Their speech and appearance amuse two girls who have just passed (left), and a stable-boy and coachman (right) and the fact that a dog is urinating on the boot of the tall man on the left who is unaware of this action. They wear supposedly English dress: breeches and boots, top-hats with small high crowns, reversing the shape of the prevailing bell-shaped topper (cf. BM Satires 14438). One (right) wears a multi-caped coat (carrick, see BM Satires 12375) and carries its skirts looped over his arm; against his shoulder he holds a huge (furled) umbrella. Their words are below the title: "Gode a Morning Sare, did it rain tow Marrow?--"Yase it vas"--. Above the door is a carved polar bear. In the window (left) above a green blind appear a tureen, bottle, &c.; placards hang against the panes offering Hashed Tongue, Soup Meagre, Hotch Potch, and Mock [Turtle]. On the right of the door is the entrance to the coach-office: The Original White Bear Inn. Coach & Waggon Office--The Original Paris Coach Office. Advertisements and place-names flank the doorway: (left) Expeditio--French English Made Easy; P[aris] & Dover Dilligence & Jumbling Ease, (right) Deal, Dover, Brighton, Paris, Calis. On the right is the entrance to the inn-yard in which stands a coach. -- From the British Museum online catalogue with additional comments., Title from caption below image., Lines of dialogue below title: "Gode a morning sare, did it rain towmorrow?

- Abstract:
- "A crowded interior. An old maid, grotesquely lean, spectacled, and hideous, sits in an arm-chair beside her fire (left) on which a concoction in a saucepan boils over, surrounded by fierce flames. This she stirs with a spoon but turns to the right to pore over the recipe, which is in her left hand. One bare foot with deformed toes rests on a stool beside which are a spike-toed high-heeled shoe and a stocking. A table beside her and the floor below it are crowded with bottles, jars, and medicaments, with a pestle and mortar and a lighted candle. The candle sets fire to her cap, and the flame reaches a little bird-cage hanging from the ceiling. A cat walks under her petticoats; a tiny lap-dog lies in a cushioned band-box lid at her feet. A second cat claws towards a mouse which runs up the pole of a perch on which stands, a draggled and angry cockatoo. A pug-dog also looks up at the bird. Against the wall is a stuffed cat in a glass case; above it is a burlesque picture of Susanna and the Elders. A neat curtained bed is on the right. The chimney-piece is decorated with Diana (burlesqued) urging on the hounds to seize Actæon. On it are three peacock's feathers, bottles, spills, a shell, a Chinese mandarin, &c. The fireplace is lined with pictorial Dutch tiles."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

- Abstract:
- "Promenaders in Hyde Park illustrate these titles. [1] A dandy walks, right to left, jauntily rakish, holding a lorgnette and glove in a gloved hand. He wears a large bell-shaped top-hat, beneath which projects a great tuft of curled hair. Under his arm is a rolled umbrella. [2] A Quaker, in a shallow broad-brimmed hat, walks primly (right to left) with a young (twin) daughter on each arm. He holds a large gamp umbrella, fastened and point downwards. [3] A thin man wearing a long greatcoat and seedy top-hat, walks (left to right) with an expression of acute melancholy. He trails behind him an unfastened umbrella. He faces heavy wind and slanting rain. Beside him is a small dead tree. Near each is an appropriate dog."--British Museum online catalogue
