- Abstract:
- "A game of billiards is being played on a table, one corner of which only is visible, so curiously elongated that it gives the impression of a triangular table. The two players stand by the corner of the table, the one who is about to make a stroke appears from his leanness, frogged coat, and long pigtail queue to be a Frenchman; he leans over the table in profile to the left, wearing pince-nez. His opponent watches him, standing on top-toe, his cue held over his left shoulder, his face screwed up in anxiety; he wears a bag-wig. A number of spectators look on with expressions of amusement or concern: on the right two men stand together grinning; on the left a man watches open-mouthed; behind the table a man watches with an expression of alarm, another takes cover behind him with a grin; a small boy stands beside them. In the foreground are two dogs, one, a greyhound, stands between the player's legs. On the wall behind the table is a rack of cues and two clock-faced scoring boards both pointing to the figure X. On the right is a door, on the left a small casement window. Pictures and prints decorate the wall (left to right): a print of Wilkes (bust) with two caps of liberty; a print of a nymph and satyr; a print of a man seated, three quarter length; a print of a man and woman whole-length; two framed landscapes."--British Museum online catalogue

- Abstract:
- "A monk walks through a ford leading a dog with a crown on its head: 'Father Peters' leading George III to Rome. The monk says "He cocks his Tail yet". He is going towards a wayside cross (right), above which are rocks, on which is seated the Pope, holding out a cross towards the travellers and saying "Hold out my Sons to the End & I'll give you a Crown of Glory". Behind him is a dome surmounted by a cross indicating St. Peter's. On the other side of the pool (left) there are also rocks, on them stands a sheep (?) and in the distance, by the sea-shore, are two small churches of rural appearance; off the shore are three dismantled ships with brooms at their mast-heads to show that they are for sale, the scene being inscribed "Little Britain."--British Museum online catalogue
