"The heads and shoulders of three persons fill the design, all studies in teeth, facial expression, and caricature. The profile head of the dentist is close to the fat face of his patient, a woman with a wide smiling mouth, open to show two rows of artificial teeth and gums. He smiles, displaying his own artificial teeth, and holds his patient by the chin. Facing him (right) is a man's head in profile, staring up at the woman through a double lorgnette; his open mouth reveals sparse and irregular teeth, in a grotesque jaw. Above his head is a notice: 'Mineral Teeth Monsier De Charmant from Paris engages to affix from one tooth to a whole set without pain. Mouns D can also affix an artificial Palate or a glass Eye in a manner peculiar to himself. he also distills'."--British Museum online catalogue.

"A barrister, haggard and exhausted, yawns over a 'Brief', reclining in an arm-chair, extending his bare legs to the fire (right) where a coffee-pot stands. Beside him is a 'Bill of Costs'. Evidence of overnight dissipation are a (Turkish) masquerade dress and mask on the floor and a young woman, partly dressed, arranging her hair at a mirror placed on the breakfast-table. Her foot rests on a large volume: 'Crim Con Cases'. The room is lined with heavy folios, a serjeant's wig hangs by the window; there is a notice: 'Term begins -- A convenient Sett of Chambe[rs] To Lett'. A bust portrait of a severe old judge is over the chimney-piece on which stand books, bottles of 'Cherry Bounce', and 'Restorative Drops'. On the ground are empty bottles, top-boots, a gun, a dog. Riding-breeches and a jockey-cap hang from a peg."--British Museum online catalogue, description of a later state.

"Large clusters of straw bonnets and hats hang from the ceiling of a room which is both show-room and work-room. A pretty shop-girl with a hat in each hand smiles at a lean ugly woman who wears a similar but ill-fitting hat, and whose complacent profile is reflected in a wall-mirror (left). A child with a rattle looks up at her. She (or he) wears frilled drawers to the ankle. A fat woman wearing a bonnet sits looking up admiringly. A cat sits on a chair. Behind, six pretty girls are seated at a table making bonnets. An ugly elderly man peers in through the window, using an eye-glass. On the wall is a large placard: 'Mrs Flimsy's Fashionable Warehouse The greatest Variety of Straw Hats & Bonnets made up in the most Elegant Taste. A large stock of Spanish Flemish Provincial Gipsey Cottage Woodland &c &c Adapted to shew every Feature to the best Advantage'. Below the title: 'Misery A La Mode.

"An elderly lady sits very upright in a glass-fronted coupé, the side window forming a frame. She has simply-dressed powdered hair on which is a turban-like drapery; a fichu covers her neck. Her dress, in front of which is a large bouquet of flowers, is shaped to the waist in a way very different from the fashion of the day. On the carriage door ls a baron's coronet above the initial 'D'. On the left is seen part of the coachman's back, and an elaborate hammer-cloth trimmed with gold fringe. Below the design: '-'t'was thus, heretofore, honest Dames shew'd their Faces, When Ball Nights & Birth Nights, call'd forth all their Graces! - But now, (-las-a-day!) what with Wigs and with Vails, Our Fair Ones, hide Faces, and all, - but their Tails! - '."--British Museum online catalogue.
