"Four persons gazing at the prints displayed in a print-shop closely resembling though not identical with that in British Museum Satire no. 3758 (1774) which is evidently by the same artist. A man and woman (left) in macaroni dress stand together, he holds her left hand smiling, and pointing at one of the prints with his right hand. She turns aside smiling behind her fan. Two men (right) stand in conversation; one (right) points out to the other, who is in back view, both hands held up in astonishment, one of the prints in the top row, apparently that of Wesley.

"A promenade in Hyde Park. Innovations are that the men have trousers pinched at the knee, hour-glass fashion, their hats have small crowns, truncated cones, like the Petersham hat, some wear flat pumps with bows, and hold small riding-whips. They have enormous whiskers, patently false, sometimes meeting under the chin. The women have much-trimmed hats with large brims, gigot sleeves, belted dresses, with full skirts. There are three little children, all with plain straw hats with vast brims, like flat mushrooms; a little girl has a hoop, a boy a whip."--British Museum online catalogue
