"A black man, dressed as a macaroni except for his tightly curled natural wool, walks in profile to the right. His right hand holds a cane, his left is on the hilt of a short curved sword or sabre with an ornamental hilt affected by macaronis."--British Museum online catalogue and "Perhaps a caricature of Jeremiah Dyson, always called Mungo after the name had been given him in a debate by Col. Barré, 29 Jan. 1769. Mungo was a negro slave in the comic opera 'The Padlock' by Bickerstaffe, and the name implied that Dyson was kept at dirty jobs for the Government."--Curator's comments, British Museum online catalogue

"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."

Abstract:
"Two men stand on the pavement outside a door-way under the pediment of which are the royal arms. Beneath them and over the doorway is inscribed, "Lovejoy, Kings arms Tavern", cf. British Museum Satires No. 4995. This appears to be a representation of the entrance to Covent Garden Theatre. The taller of the two men (left) has snatched off the other's wig, and holds it up in his right hand. In his left hand is his sword, broken off below the hilt; his hat is on the ground. Behind and to the right stands a short stout man with bare shaved head; his hat is in his right hand. The taller man is dressed in the prevailing macaroni fashion and has a certain resemblance to Colman, then part-proprietor and manager of Covent Garden Theatre, see British Museum Satires No. 5064. The wig of the other is of the type worn by 'cits', see British Museum Satires No. 5463."--British Museum online catalogue
