- Abstract:
- "A dandy, much burlesqued, stands full-face, his head, which has a bird-like profile, turned to the left; his hair is brushed up at the back behind his hat to resemble the tail-feathers of a cock. He wears puffed-out breeches and top-boots with enormous spurs, and holds an umbrella (see No. 13060). A narrow coat-tail hangs between his stick-like legs. His thin arms in tight sleeves project awkwardly, and he wears short yellow (chicken-skin) gloves; a broad patterned strip hangs from his fob, with seals and watch-key. A sign-post among shrubs points 'To Chalk Farm' [Hampstead]. The dome of St. Paul's (left) appears in the distance, and in the middle distance (right) are new suburban houses."--British Museum online catalogue

- Abstract:
- "Scene in a ramshackle garret. A dandy in a late stage of decay crouches over the fire (where an iron is heating) on a small stool, holding out his shirt, befrilled and collared, but sleeveless. He wears tightly laced stays over bare flesh, which is ravaged by insects or skin-disease, with ragged drawers and socks. Other ragged garments hang from a string across the fireplace, others project from a crock (right) where they are being washed. Boots, blacking, &c., are on the floor. Coat, hat, trousers, and eyeglass lie on a makeshift bed; an overcoat hangs on a coat-hanger. His hair is brushed upwards from the neck with one lock arranged over the forehead. His whiskers are on a stand on the table, with broken combs, tooth-brush, &c. On the wall hang his umbrella, a pair of bootsoles, and a red herring. On the chimney-piece, with medicine-bottle, tea-pot, &c., is a ballad headed by a gibbet with corpses. On a box which forms a head to the bed are band-box, cane, cracked mirror, &c."--British Museum online catalogue

I shall faint! the lacing of my Stays have broke and I shall be undone." The lady, who is pretty and very décolletée, sits on a sofa. She exclaims to a maid who stands behind the shoemaker (right): "Susan what is the Creature about? he's taking liberties with me!" She answers: "Why Madam he has got a pair of Ladies Stays on"; stay-laces are flying up between his narrow coat-tails. On a table (right) are a pair of laced boots and a pair of flat slippers. Beside a window draped with curtains stands a vase of cut flowers on a high tripod."--British Museum online catalogue
