A much-feathered hat frames her face; she wears long gloves, and carries a (closed) fringed parasol, fringed shawl, and a reticule. She walks down a grass slope backed by forest trees. Behind is a church spire."--British Museum online catalogue, description of a later state

- Abstract:
- "An elegant schoolmistress in a neat parlour addresses two visitors, a fat and over-dressed farmer's wife with a daughter of about fifteen, similarly dressed and resembling her mother. On the right is a piano with open music, and a chair on which is propped a needlework picture of Charlotte mourning under a weeping willow, at a tomb with an urn inscribed 'Werter'. The governess holds in her hand a card: 'Terms of B[on] Tons School'; she points to the picture, saying, "You would perhaps like the Young Lady to work something in silks Madam! there is a pretty subject, Charlotte at the Tomb of Werter". The visitor exclaims: "A very pretty piece I pertest! my Dater has a Genii for Drawing! Penelope my dear! you shall work Charlotte at the Tub of Water". The girl, delighted, answers: "La Mother! I shall like that! you know Mounseer Gumboge says: I make Water as natural as Life". Trees are seen through an open window."--British Museum online catalogue

- Abstract:
- "A woman decked out in quasi-fashionable but absurd finery, stands in an old-clothes shop between two sailors, one (r.) dressed much as in BMSat 10894, but with two bunches of seals at his fob, the other wearing a petticoat, his bluejacket open to show a white waistcoat. Both have their black scarves knotted round a white stick-up collar. The woman holds a parasol, and has a ring on every finger; a miniature (see BMSat 10894) hangs from a chain of beads, she has two large bunches of seals, bracelets, and ear-rings. A much-feathered hat has a large projecting scoop; her high-waisted dress has a long train, with vandyked lace trimmings. The vulgar, would-be fashionable, shopman, says: "Depend upon it Sir, mine is the first house for for fashionable Articles in Monmouth Street, on the honor of a Salesman I have dealt fairly and honestly, I assure you, by the Young Lady's fashionable feather hat, I dont get a farthing - ." The sailor answers: "Come - come no palaver. I know you have cheated me pretty handsomely - but howsomever as my Messmate and I go partners in the ship and Cargo - it wont fall so heavy - but come my hearty - I'll tell you what I'll do with you - throw me in half a dozen laced Smickets [chemises], and we'll make it even money, I like to have it all rignt under the Hatches, you understand me - all of a piece from Stem to Stern, D----n me!" The other sailor (r.) and Poll face each other. He says: "Why Poll I should scarcely know you - You look like a Bond Street frigate steering towards Pall-Mall - but I say my lass I dont much admire your gib-boom - it puts me in mind of a scuttle fish in a fresh gale." On the extreme left. are long shelves piled with garments; on the r. a man's tail-coat is displayed on a stand. The shop opposite is seen through the open door."--British Museum online catalogue
