Abstract:
"Ten figures arranged in two rows, each with a caption. 'A Modest Woman of Quality': a lady stands holding a fan, directed to the right and looking to the left. 'A Primitive Bishop': a plainly dressed and ugly parson stands in profile to the right. 'A Real Maid of Five and Thirty': a woman walks in profile to the left, with a veil over hair and forehead, looking down and holding a half-closed fan before her face. 'An Exciseman with a Conscience' stands with his hands plunged in his breeches pocket, book under one arm, ink-bottle with pen fastened to his coat, a second pen behind his ear. An 'Author with a second suit of Cloaths' capers delightedly, apparently admiring his tasselled Hessian boots. 'A Great Man of Common Sense' is a handsome young man wearing a military coat with clocked stockings and pumps standing in profile to the right. 'A Woman who has continued three Months a Widow!' She looks alluringly through the meshes of a veil which partly covers her face; her dress is décolletée, and her pose inviting. 'A Theatrical Hero of Modesty and oeconomy': a good-looking young man bows, hat in hand. 'A Complete Honest Attorney' stands with head turned in profile to the right. 'A Man of Talents, Wit and Learning--possess'd of a Thousand a Year': a stout middle-aged man with a handsome profile stands holding out a bunch of papers inscribed '300', '200', '300', 10[0]."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

Abstract:
"The interior of a luxuriously furnished room, across one corner of which is a large folding screen. Behind the screen (left) a man stands on a chair looking over it, while a footman in livery crouches beside him looking round it at a pair of lovers: a fashionably dressed young military officer sprawls on a sofa, with his arms round the waist of a pretty young woman. On the ground beside them a mandoline lies across a music-book. On a small ornate table are fruit and a bottle. The fire-place, chimney-piece, candelabra, and a landscape in an ornate frame indicate a handsomely furnished room. The man looking over the screen is elderly and dressed in an old-fashioned manner with tie-wig, flapped waistcoat, and sleeves with wide cuffs."--British Museum online catalogue
