- Abstract
-
"A scene in the small courtyard of a London inn, at which a stage-coach has just arrived. A stout lady is getting out of the coach, larger in scale than the other figures; the coachman is taking game, &c, from the box. A short stout 'cit' yawns and stretches. Another man looks sourly at his watch; packages lie on the ground, including a hamper directed to 'Alderman Guttle'. A smiling waiter (right) invites the company to enter the inn. Through the folding gates of the yard is seen a street with a distant church."--British Museum online catalogue
