"A man walks along the pavement in profile to the left., stooping from the waist but with head erect. He wears spectacles and carries a stick. He approaches the door (left) of Christies, which is partly visible. On the pillar hangs the usual catalogue: 'Catalogue of 800 Capital Pictures to be Sold by Mr Christie in Pall Mall. Feby 1st 1808'. The wall of the house (No. 125) with a window forms the background. Snow is heaped against the railings, where there is a shovel and broom."--British Museum online catalogue.
