"One of a set of aquatint copies of Rowlandson's watercolours, all signed 'Rowlandson', see British Museum Satires No. 11111 &c. A pawnbroker's shop, with the (?) street door on the left, and on the right a receiving office, a rectangular opening in a wall, dividing the interior from the lobby in which the customers stand. At this stands a gay young courtesan, tattered but comely, looking at a gap-toothed Jew who holds up the ragged shift or chemise which she has brought. A fat bawd grasping a bottle stands behind her, and pushing through the door is a man with a grotesque profile suggesting decay. A barelegged child with a flat-iron and gridiron stands at the counter looking up at the Jew. In the recess behind the Jew goods are piled on shelves, a saucepan, garments, &c. In large letters next the street door is 'Money Lent', with the sign of three balls."--British Museum online catalogue
