Abstract:
"Two men stand on the pavement outside a door-way under the pediment of which are the royal arms. Beneath them and over the doorway is inscribed, "Lovejoy, Kings arms Tavern", cf. British Museum Satires No. 4995. This appears to be a representation of the entrance to Covent Garden Theatre. The taller of the two men (left) has snatched off the other's wig, and holds it up in his right hand. In his left hand is his sword, broken off below the hilt; his hat is on the ground. Behind and to the right stands a short stout man with bare shaved head; his hat is in his right hand. The taller man is dressed in the prevailing macaroni fashion and has a certain resemblance to Colman, then part-proprietor and manager of Covent Garden Theatre, see British Museum Satires No. 5064. The wig of the other is of the type worn by 'cits', see British Museum Satires No. 5463."--British Museum online catalogue

In front of a cottage, a long-haired young apprentice or tradesman in his leather apron smiles proudly as he tries on a red military coat, despite the pleas of his sweetheart who tries to pull him away. A young recruiting sergeant offers the new recruit his own plumed hat to try on, together with a tankard of ale, while in the background a drummer in a grenadier cap looks on and drinks from a glass. A recruiting broadside is tacked on the wall above, addressed to "All aspiring young men who despise slavery..."
