Abstract:
"Seven men (three-quarter length) are grouped round a card-table in a Smithfield tavern. One (right), young and innocent, inspects his cards; beside him an older countryman lies back asleep (right), his dog resting his head on his knee. The other gambler (left), holding his cards, looks at his victim. Three onlookers have crafty expressions. A fat man, smoking, approaches with a bowl of punch. In the bar (left) a fat woman chalks up a score. Coins, a watch, and pocket-book are on the table. A broken mirror and a picture of a horse decorate the walls."--British Museum online catalogue.

"The royal party on board a vessel which, though the sail is inscribed 'Southampton Frigate', resembles a fishing-vessel. They are seated in the stern in the worst throes of sea-sickness: the King (centre), his hat tied on with a handkerchief, clasps his stomach. One of the princesses, holding a smelling-bottle, supports the Queen. The helmsman is impeded by a fat lady who drinks from a bottle. A princess (left) droops despairingly, another (right) appeals to Heaven for mercy. A sailor (left) carries off a bucket, holding his nose. Below the deck appear the heads of two beef-eaters, vomiting."--British Museum online catalogue.

"The interior of a sale-room lit by a candelabra hanging from the ceiling. The buyers and connoisseurs sit on the outer side of a line of trestle-tables arranged in the arc of a circle. Others stand behind them. In the centre sits the auctioneer Hutchins, stout and smiling, his hammer raised. The clerk (Judd) sits facing him in shadow, writing at a small table lit by two candles. Two attendants stand on the inner side of the trestles showing the lots. One (left) shows a large volume to a group of five, the centre figure being the spectacled Dr. Lort. On the walls of the room are framed pictures, including one of a reclining Venus. On the high chimney-piece are statuettes. The persons are portraits, slightly caricatured, and drawn with humour and expressiveness."--British Museum online catalogue.

"Two doctors (left) stoke the fires of a row of seven cylindrical vessels or furnaces from which their patients (half length) emerge. These recede slightly in perspective from right to left. On the extreme right is Burke ('B------e'), drooping dejectedly, and saying, "By Jasus I have got no Juice left". Next him Fox ('F--x') declaims, hat in hand, "I have sweated enough. Sheridan ('S------n') gesticulates furiously with clenched fists, saying, "This is Scandalous the Baily's have sufficiently sweated me" (executions in Sheridan's house were frequent). Next him is the Prince ('P------'), clasping his hands, and saying, "I suppose they call this a Regency Sweat". A young woman on his right, 'Mrs J------n', (? Jordan) says "I sweat with desire". Next is ('W------e') Weltje (cf. BMSat 7509), saying, "I never sweat so much at Cooking in all my Life". On the extreme left Mrs. Fitzherbert ('F--T--T'), her arms extended in a frenzy, says, "And I with Jealousy what disregard the Marriage Rights". On the ground, below their patients, are the two doctors: Willis on the extreme left, indicated by his clerical bands, holds coal on a shovel, while Dominicetti, wearing a nightcap, kneels on one knee to stir up the furnace under Sheridan with a long poker. On the right is a 'Coal Tub'. Clouds of steam rise from the baths."--British Museum online catalogue.
