"Four persons gazing at the prints displayed in a print-shop closely resembling though not identical with that in British Museum Satire no. 3758 (1774) which is evidently by the same artist. A man and woman (left) in macaroni dress stand together, he holds her left hand smiling, and pointing at one of the prints with his right hand. She turns aside smiling behind her fan. Two men (right) stand in conversation; one (right) points out to the other, who is in back view, both hands held up in astonishment, one of the prints in the top row, apparently that of Wesley. Other prints print of John Bunyan and George Whitefield. A dog befouls the foot of the man facing the shop-window."--British Museum online catalogue

"A man seated and playing a viol da gamba, the upper end of which is decorated by a carved head with a smiling face, wearing a laurel wreath, which is probably a portrait of the musician. He wears a small wig, a coat with large old-fashioned cuffs, and ruffled shirt-sleeves. Probably Karl Friedrich Abel, well known in London concert rooms at this time."--British Museum online catalogue
