"Portrait of Jack Adams, known as "the cunning man of Clerkenwell Green", an astrologer, at a table casting a horoscope, a tobacco pipe tucked into his belt. A woman wearing a torn cap and collar, and over whose head is written "the queene of slutes", stands behind him touching his shoulder asking him to tell her fortune. In the lower right corner, the head and shoulders of a man appear; he holds out his hat with his left hand and with the right offers coins to the astrologer, asking "Is she a princess". On the table, as well as the horoscope on which Adams writes, is an inkwell with another quill, an almanack lettered "Poor Robin's Path to Knowledge" and a horn-book; on the wall behind hangs a medal with the head of a man in a turban; two shelves are partly concealed by a curtain, the top shelf has books and a fool's wand with a horse's head and the shelf below has children's toys, a drum and spinning tops with whips."--British Museum online catalogue
