Abstract:
"A stalwart bearded Jew stands surrounded by courtesans: one puts her arms round him, his right. arm round her waist; he smiles back knowingly, while he holds the left hand of the woman on his left. A third looks over his shoulder. He wears a cocked hat and a garish old-fashioned waistcoat, heavily trimmed with gold. The women are comely and fashionably dressed; one wears a long fur stole over her low-necked short-sleeved gown. They stand at the corner of 'Petticoat Lane'; below the name: 'Fire Plug 6 . . 1/2'."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

"Scene in a ramshackle attic, with a curtained bed on the right. A family sit at a table covered with a tattered cloth, on which are part of a loaf and four small potatoes. The ragged, lean, and elderly man (left) faces his still more haggard wife. A small boy stands by his mother, a youth and little girl sit opposite. All scowl with dismay at the meagre fare. A starving cat miaows. The man recites: "O! thou that blest the loaves and fishes, Look down upon these two poor dishes, And though the 'tatoes are but small, Oh make them large enough for all. For if they should our bellies fill 'Twill be a kind of Miricle!!!""--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"The ... inscription, but not the signatures, is on a conventional curtain symmetrically arranged across the design, centred by a laughing mask of John Bull type. The design is flanked by a woman (left) and a man (right) seated and laughing, both ugly and elderly, both holding a print in which their heads and shoulders are reflected as if in a mirror. The curtain drops on each side of the central mask to disclose caricature heads, closely grouped, as if in the gallery of a theatre. Those on the left are directed to the right, those on the right to the left; a few are women. Most are amused, some scowl, one sleeps, one yawns. On the lower edge of the design, below the feet of the couple holding the prints, are burlesque 'Lilliputian' figures, characteristic of Woodward, see British Museum Satires no. 9635, &c. They diminish in scale from right and left towards the centre, where the curtain touches the base of the design. The two exterior figures (right and left) are zanies or pierrots. A man stands chapeau-bras looking through his glass at tiny figures at his feet."--British Museum online catalogue
