- Abstract:
- "Extravagantly dressed pedestrians promenade beside (?) the Serpentine. Almost all are arm-in-arm, an exception being an ugly and complacent woman whose face is covered by a long transparent lace veil. The women walk leaning back, as in BM Satires 14438; they point their toes as if at a dancing class, drawing up their skirts, but these are less long. A fashion for stripes for women's dresses and for trousers is apparent, and for patterned materials with scalloped flounces, furbelows, ribbons, and over-trimmed hats. Curled hair frames the face and rests on the shoulders. Waists are still wasp-like for both sexes. Men wear checked neck-cloths with high collars. Much play is made with eye-glasses and canes. Hessian and top-boots are corrugated, spurs are oddly absent. The women wear very flat slippers, tied at the ankle. Beyond the water are trees."--British Museum online catalogue

- 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?

- "Reissue of a print published by Humphrey, 25 June 1819. An enormously tall pole projects from a rocky mound seen against a background of sea and icebergs. A sailor with a Union flag has climbed nearly to the top; at the base is a little group of sailors, waving their hats, who have just scaled the mound.

- Abstract:
- "Scene in a school-room, pupils performing for admiring relations and friends. Eight little girls in party frocks do dance-steps while an agitated dancing-master leans angrily towards them, playing his fiddle. Other little girls watch from a bench (right). Boys sit in two tiers on an improvised platform from which they have stuck pens in the wig of an aged schoolmaster who is greeting a visitor. A dressed-up old woman hands a tray of refreshments to caricatured guests seated on the left, while four dandified men stand on the right. An ugly old woman snuffs a candle while she menaces the group of boys. On the wall are a sampler and drawings perpetrated by the pupils. There is a hanging gas chandelier."--British Museum online catalogue
