"An aged man with a Jewish profile unlocks a large padlock on an iron-studded door under a vaulted portico. Beside him stands a man dressed like a sailor with a basket of poultry and fish on his head, and a straw-covered flask in his hand. An area railing is also padlocked, but behind the railing is a handsome young officer on a ladder, helping a pretty girl out of the window. The old man wears old-fashioned dress with a tie-wig, and two coats, one worn like a cape with the sleeves empty. His crutched stick leans against the door. A corbel above the door is a grotesque figure with a Jewish profile, supporting a burden."--British Museum online catalogue.

"Masqueraders stand closely grouped. A centre figure is an obese, aged, and capering Punch, playing a guitar. Two women are prominent, both are in profile to the left, and wear small masks which frame their eyes. One holds a wand and a book inscribed 'Magi', the other wears breeches and is very décolletée. Behind her is an ugly coarse-looking man, wearing a domino with a naturalistic mask resembling his own features. A man wears a bag-wig with large horns and carries a placard inscribed 'Horns to Sell'. One figure wears two realistic and complete masks, Janus-like--one that of a handsome woman, the other of an ugly man. The background is an arc of a rotunda, with Ionic pillars framing curtains and decorated with fairy lights."--British Museum online catalogue.

"A collection of antiques, real or faked, Egyptian and classical. A buxom young woman opens a hinged mummy-case (left) to embrace a handsome young officer in regimentals who stands within it. An aged man crouching down (right) glares at them through an eye-glass in frenzied malevolence. Another mummy has a realistic head, and there is a life-like statue of an Egyptian wearing a head-dress and loin-cloth. There are also a satyr and smaller figures of Egyptian gods. On the wall are grotesque satyrs' masks and on a high shelf are Greek or Etruscan vases. On the ground is a book: 'Loves of the Gods Embelld with Cuts'."--British Museum online catalogue.

"A hand-coloured print of a steep hill in Greenwich Park on which people are running up and down. Large and thin couples chase one another, kiss and cavort, sometimes with disastrous outcomes, including a couple of women who have collided, their bottoms exposed. At the top of the hill stands a tree under which two men are seated. At the bottom left, a man hides behind a tree, ready to strike an un-suspecting woman with a stick."--Royal Collection Trust online catalogue.

"Three pretty young nuns stand behind a widely spaced iron grille; one of them sells netted silk purses to a handsome young British officer in full regimentals who gazes fixedly at them. Two return his gaze. Behind and on the extreme left, an ugly old officer stares at them through a lorgnette. Beside the three nuns is a fourth, old, ugly, sour, and duenna-like. The figures are half length or three-quarter length. Behind the nuns is a background of Gothic vaulting with a crucifix."--British Museum online catalogue.

"A close-up view of one of the 'pigeon holes' which flanked the upper gallery at Covent Garden. Heads closely packed together are framed in the lunette opening, six or seven rows receding one above the other in the centre. Most seem suffering from heat or discomfort, and except for one or two pretty young women are grotesquely caricatured. The centre figure in the front row, leaning on the parapet and apparently asleep, is a fat coachman in livery. An old man leans over, bleeding copiously at the nose. In the spaces left by the curve of the lunette in the upper corners of the design are groups symbolizing Comedy (left) and Tragedy (right): comic mask, pan-pipes, &c."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state.

"Students draw from a nude female model by artificial light. She stands on a low polygonal platform, gracefully posed, her raised right arm supported on a rope slung from the roof, underneath a large round reflector under which a lamp burns. Beside her is a bottle and glass. Behind the platform is a large closed stove and a high screen. The students sit on two rows of seats arranged in a horse-shoe, the second row raised above the first, resting their drawing-boards on a rail. Lamps or candles with reflectors are attached to this rail at intervals. One man (left) paints standing at a painting-table; he wears apron and oversleeves; behind him stands a man inspecting the model through a glass. Almost all the students wear powdered hair with side-curls and small pigtails; many are elderly. The room is handsome; the walls are covered with casts from the antique: busts on a shelf near the ceiling with bas-reliefs below. The drawing is realistic, the heads of the students slightly caricatured."--British Museum online catalogue.
