- Abstract:
- "Three fashionable dandies (see No. 13029) 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 lutenist 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."-- British Museum online catalogue

- Abstract:
- "One of a pair, with the same signatures and imprint, see No. 12929. Two couples dance with vigour, holding hands in a line, the ladies facing right, the men left. Other couples stand. Fashionable dress is burlesqued, the ladies with very décolletée and short-waisted dress, with short skirts, very wide, flounced, and projecting. One has a grotesque coiffure, hair strained into a pyramid, bound with ribbon, and topped by an absurd flower. The dandified men wear knee-breeches or tight pantaloons with high collars; hair cropped on the neck and projecting like an inverted basin. The room is bare except for festooned curtains."--British Museum online catalogue

- Abstract:
- "Three dandies (see No. 13029) inspect a velocipede (see No. 13399), which the dealer, bow-legged, horsy, and flashy-looking, holds by the steering-handle. They are outside a stable with an aperture through which look three hungry and startled horses. Above the closed door is a board: 'Stables [scored through] Hobby Horses taken in to mind or Stand at Livery NB a Fine Stud of Real Horses To Be Sold as cheap as dogs meat -- The present proprietor going into the Hobby Line.' A lean stable-hand in patched clothes sits against the wall on an overturned bucket, curry-comb and broom beside him. He glares with a twisted grimace at the velocipede. At his feet is a book: 'Othello's Occupation's gone.' The dealer looks slyly at a dandy (right) who stands with his hands on a cane: "I'll warrant him sound Sir & free from Vice." The other answers: "I can see he has been down once or twice though my lad." A second dandy stoops, hand on knees, to inspect the bar or pole: "He seems to me Jack not to have quite Barrel enough." The third, holding an eye-glass to his eye, says: "Good fore hand by Jupiter." They wear rakish bell-shaped top-hats. In the background a dandy on a velocipede follows a lady, similarly mounted; both wear top-hats; behind them rides a sour-looking groom."--British Museum online catalogue
