Abstract:: "Interior of a poorly-appointed barber's shop. The barber (left) is shaving a customer who sits in profile to the left facing the window, he holds his razor carelessly, to his customer's alarm, while looking eagerly towards another customer, who sits (right) on a stool in profile to the left, reading from the 'Morning Chronicle'. The barber's assistant or apprentice, a small ragged fellow, gapes up at the reader, he straddles across the stand of a barber's block on which is the wig which he is combing. Two other customers listen intently, both wear aprons, one of them is a shoemaker with a last under his arm. The man reading is shown to be a tailor by the yard-measure which hangs from his coat-pocket. On the wall hang coat, hat, wig, a broken looking-glass, a ballad, a roller-towel. In the window wigs are suspended. On the floor are two wig-boxes (left), inscribed 'Mr Deputy Grizzle' and 'Mr Snipp', a barber's bowl, and a night-cap."--British Museum online catalogue
