"Portrait of a man standing in profile to the right, holding in his right hand a conical vessel. He wears a tie-wig, three-cornered hat and frilled shirt."--British Museum online catalogue and "The title, and the resemblance to his engraved portrait, show that he is Christopher Pinchbeck the younger (c. 1710-83), the inventor, holding one of his inventions, perhaps his celebrated candlesnuffers. He is described in his patents as "toyman and mechanician". As an anti-Wilkite he was a subject of raillery: 'The London Evening Post', 19-21 Nov. 1772, forecast the possible election as president of the Royal Society of "no less a person than the noted Pinchbeck, buckle and knickknack maker to the King."

"European sovereigns (wearing crowns) and others, watch a game of billiards between the Tsar, the principal figure, and the Sultan. Nicholas (left), a dandy in uniform, is about to make a stroke which will inevitably pocket the Turkish ball; in the pocket beside him is a ball inscribed 'Greece'. He registers complacent satisfaction. The Turk (right), in ornate Turkish dress and jewelled turban with two aigrettes, stamps furiously, tearing his long white beard. Greece (or the pro-Russian President of the Republic, Capodistrias) stands behind Nicholas on the extreme left, gloomily smoking a long pipe. He wears elaborate national costume, and a cone-shaped cap from which project two long ass's ears; this is surmounted by a chain and padlock and inscribed 'Cap of Liberty presented by Russia'. Charles X bends excitedly towards him, both hands raised; he says: 'By Gar he has pocket your Ball--dat is no good for you.' On the wall a framed map of the globe serves as marking board; the east, north, and west sides are respectively: 'Greece', 'Turkey', and 'India', the last being 'Game'. The pointer is a bayoneted musket. Francis I is marking, his finger on the pointer which has just passed "Turkey" on its way to "India"; he looks down at the table, saying, 'I may as well mark Game.' Frederick William III puts his hand on his shoulder, saying, 'I say Brother Marker, you and I must go snacks.' Seated under this map is Francis I of the Two Sicilies, his arms folded; he holds his crown which is 'Wrapped up--to preserve the NAP'. Between the map and Charles X stands an American, presumably President Jackson, a tall man in civilian dress with a jauntily worn high-crowned hat. He says: 'Pretty considerable--that is I guess how the game will be' [see British Museum Satires No. 14714]. Between the King of Prussia and the Sultan stands Ferdinand VII, as the "Spanish Mule" of British Museum Satires No. 12508, &c., an ass's head, with blinkers and a muzzle, and long ears projecting through his crown. He wears ruff, slashed doublet, &c, and reads a paper: 'Map of Sou[th] Amer[ica]'. In the foreground Wellington (right) sits in a small chair, in profile to the left, his eyes looking apprehensively behind him, his mouth pursed. He wears blue coat and white trousers and holds a cue, the butt resting on the ground; under his chair lies a British bull-dog, gazing up with melancholy intentness. The Duke's shadow forms the silhouette of a soldier standing with folded arms. In the middle distance are notabilities, less directly concerned. The Duke of Brunswick in the uniform of a Death's Head Hussar, with a conical fool's cap with bells poised above his crown, says, 'I'll see Hanover d--n before I ask his pardon.' O'Connell, with a big bag of 'Rent' under his arm (see British Museum Satires No. 14766, &c), says to the Pope, holding out a ticket inscribed 'MP, By der powers father I won two games' [his two returns for Clare, see British Museum Satires Nos. 15538, 15847]. On the extreme right Dom Miguel, wearing the Order of the Tower and Sword, clutches his crown, saying, 'I must hold tight now--my little Wife that was to be--is gone home.'"--British Museum online catalogue

"Promenaders in Hyde Park illustrate these titles. [1] A dandy walks, right to left, jauntily rakish, holding a lorgnette and glove in a gloved hand. He wears a large bell-shaped top-hat, beneath which projects a great tuft of curled hair. Under his arm is a rolled umbrella. [2] A Quaker, in a shallow broad-brimmed hat, walks primly (right to left) with a young (twin) daughter on each arm. He holds a large gamp umbrella, fastened and point downwards. [3] A thin man wearing a long greatcoat and seedy top-hat, walks (left to right) with an expression of acute melancholy. He trails behind him an unfastened umbrella. He faces heavy wind and slanting rain. Beside him is a small dead tree. Near each is an appropriate dog."--British Museum online catalogue
