Best Havannah. Returns. Pig tail. Tabac exqius [sic] [graphic]

On the left a very thin and would-be fashionable young man stands in profile to the right, smoking a slim cigar. To his right a very broad hackney-coachman puffs at a very long clay pipe. He wears a long greatcoat with capes, over bulging coats and clumsy top-boots, with small top-hat. To his right a sailor in striped shirt and loose white trousers, chewing a quid with a pugnacious sideways look, stands full-face, taking tobacco from his box. On the far right a Frenchman stands full-face, taking a pinch from a snuff-box. A poodle stands beside him. His ear-rings, hat with truncated conical crown, and full white trousers gathered at the ankle indicate his nationality. See British Museum online catalogue
