"Five passengers sit together on a bench against the side of a ship, all but a small boy, seemingly a mulatto, manifesting misery or resignation. The others (left to right) are a woman shrouded in black except for her chin, a planter in a long coat and broad-brimmed hat, his wife's arm through his. A fat and hideous negress, awkwardly asleep. The deck is level."--British Museum online catalogue

"Two elderly men, in old-fashioned dress, play chess, seated at a small table, lit by two guttering candles. One moves, the other watches with intense concern. Each has a deeply interested spectator leaning on the back of his chair. All four are caricatured. A small dog lies on the ground. A large fire burns in the grate (right). Over the chimney-piece is the lower part of a whole length portrait. On the wall behind the players are three pictures: one of a man playing ninepins outside a rustic inn, with a donkey looking over a paling, is flanked by a picture of a horse and by a landscape."--British Museum online catalogue

A copy of a print (British Museum satires no. 12392) published by Humphrey in 6 March 1814. The players are the same, but one (right) has become gouty and sits in a winged arm-chair. The spectators are altered, but are perhaps intended to be the same persons, transformed by dress and pose. One (right) is a dandy who leans against the chimney-piece warming his coat-tails, and watching with a contemptuous smile. There is a picture of skittle-players, as in no. 12392; in place of the horse (left) a left-handed cricketer is depicted

"The mother sits beside an open work-table, receiving the children whom a black footman ushers in, looking round the door and grinning broadly. The eldest girl has rushed into her mother's arms; a little boy stands beside her, gleefully welcoming a younger girl who is running forward. The eldest boy, on whom his mother's eyes are fixed, advances nonchalantly, blowing a trumpet. A cockatoo screeches on its perch. There are two pictures: Harvest Home and Happy Return, a woman at her cottage door greeting a youth."--British Museum online catalogue

Print shows three fashionable dandies in a well-furnished room. One (left) sings, seated, and with a leg resting on a second (lyre-backed) chair; he leans sentimentally, hand on heart, towards a lutanist reclining on a (Regency) sofa playing an ornate curiously shaped instrument. The third stands behind the sofa, playing a flageolet, and admiring himself in a mirror above the ornate fireplace. The vocalist holds an open music-book: 'Love has eyes.' On the floor beside him are two others: 'The Lovesick Swain set to Music' and 'Our Warbling Notes and Ivory lutes Shall ravish every ear.' Two whole length portraits flank the mirror, one of a lady in quasi-Elizabethan dress, the other of a man similarly dressed, both having pinched waists and full busts. Below one is a picture of 'Vacuna' [Goddess of rural leisure], a blowzy woman lying under a tree; below the other, a grotesque 'Narcissus' admires his reflection. On the end of the sofa sits a grotesquely clipped (and dandified) poodle suckling puppies
