Abstract:
"In the foreground is a low cliff or bank overlooking the sands; from this four elderly men are eagerly and delightedly looking through telescopes at naked ladies disporting in the sea. An angry woman (right) tugs at the coat-tails of one of them; she has a tiny sunshade, and like her husband is grossly fat. Bathing machines are in the water, with hoods covering the steps to the sea. A fat bathing woman pushes a lady up the steps of a machine. Behind the spectators is a 'Circulating Library'; above the lower floors is a large balcony from which more men are gazing through telescopes. On the extreme right is a doorway placarded: 'Hot Sea Baths'; a fat man with a crutch walks in. In the background a jetty projects from the sands, with a windlass, and packages of goods. Behind are small vessels."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"A crowded turbulent scene in the market square, Norwich. In the foreground, on trestles, is the carcass of a bull which two butchers are cutting up. Men struggle or clamour for fragments, or gnaw and fight over bones. On the right a huge cask has been broached; women fill pitchers and pails; one lies senseless. In the background a dense crowd is in procession, backed by the houses of the city; a bonfire burns unattended. The cheering crowd moves from right to Ieft, following banners, one inscribed 'Downfall of the Tyrant', and an effigy of Napoleon raised high on a pole and surrounded by pikes."--British Museum online catalogue
