Abstract:
"The heads and shoulders of three persons fill the design, all studies in teeth, facial expression, and caricature. The profile head of the dentist is close to the fat face of his patient, a woman with a wide smiling mouth, open to show two rows of artificial teeth and gums. He smiles, displaying his own artificial teeth, and holds his patient by the chin. Facing him (right) is a man's head in profile, staring up at the woman through a double lorgnette; his open mouth reveals sparse and irregular teeth, in a grotesque jaw. Above his head is a notice: 'Mineral Teeth Monsier De Charmant from Paris engages to affix from one tooth to a whole set without pain. Mouns D can also affix an artificial Palate or a glass Eye in a manner peculiar to himself. he also distills'."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

Abstract:
"A barrister, haggard and exhausted, yawns over a 'Brief', reclining in an arm-chair, extending his bare legs to the fire (right) where a coffee-pot stands. Beside him is a 'Bill of Costs'. Evidence of overnight dissipation are a (Turkish) masquerade dress and mask on the floor and a young woman, partly dressed, arranging her hair at a mirror placed on the breakfast-table. Her foot rests on a large volume: 'Crim Con Cases'. The room is lined with heavy folios, a serjeant's wig hangs by the window; there is a notice: 'Term begins -- A convenient Sett of Chambe[rs] To Lett'. A bust portrait of a severe old judge is over the chimney-piece on which stand books, bottles of 'Cherry Bounce', and 'Restorative Drops'. On the ground are empty bottles, top-boots, a gun, a dog. Riding-breeches and a jockey-cap hang from a peg."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"A tall fashionably dressed portrait painter, holding his crescent-shaped hat under his arm, stands between his subject (right) and the whole length painting of her which leans against the wall (left). The lady is fantastically fat, with huge lips. She wears a short-waisted décollétee dress (though her waist is undiscernible), and holds in both hands a small parasol. On the canvas she is transformed into Juno pouring out a libation for Jove, an eagle clutching thunderbolts; she wears quasi-classical dress, with breast and arms bare; one sandalled foot rests on a cloud. Her bulk is scarcely modified; the likeness remains, though the contour of face and lips is improved. Two half length portraits also lean against the wall. The Irish painter declaims: "A famous hand Madam!!! Your Eyes indeed are featured there, but where's the sparkling moisture, shineing fluid in which they swim? the Picture indeed has your dimples, but wheres the swarm of hilling Cupids that should ambush there? the lips to are figured out, but where's [the] dew, the pouting ripeness that tempts the taste in the original; your breasts too!! What paint Heaven!!! presumtuos Man!" She says, with eyes coyly dropped: "Oh Mr Flanegan You flatter me!!"."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
"A design with much-burlesqued 'Lilliputian' figures with large heads, as British Museum Satires No. 9635, &c, but grotesquely elongated as in British Museum Satires No. 10604, &c. In the foreground (left) are four card-players at a round table lit by two candles. One man (left) is in military uniform, with a pigtail, trousers and tied shoes; he and his partner (right) are pleased: she says: "I lead trump"; he says: "A charming hand this time however". A man in back view wears an enormous bag-wig, the bag covering the back of his chair; he says: "Worse and worse". His melancholy partner says: "I never held such cards in my Life." Behind the lady on the right stands a footman holding a salver with three tall glasses of wine; he yawns cavernously: "Ya, ha!" In the middle distance (right) an bows to a lady who curtseys; he says: "I never saw your Ladyship look more beautiful will you take cards or dance." She answers: "Neither my Lord at Present." A cut-glass chandelier with four tall candles hangs above their heads. Behind is an ornate archway through which is seen a ball-room with a musicians' gallery and grotesque dancers. On the extreme right is a side-table with decanters, candles, a stand of jelly-glasses."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

Abstract:
"A burlesque election scene, most of the figures having large grotesque heads, similar to those in British Museum Satires Nos. 10604, 10663. On the right a corner of the hustings is indicated by a rail behind which stand the candidate and three of his supporters. One of the latter, next the silent candidate, addresses the people below: "I have now Gentlemen the honor to propose to you my friend next me Solomon Sheepface Esqr of Sheepface Hall, you are all well acquainted with his disposition, he is so harmless he would not hurt a Worm, - once elected he will say Aye or No just as the occasion may require." The candidate has an expression of bewildered melancholy. Five men form the audience, one shouts "No Sheepface"; another waves his hat, shouting, "Sheepface for ever Huzza". On the left two men gaze at a large election poster on a wall: 'To the Worthy and Independent Electors of the Borough of Long Heads Gentlemen your Votes and Interest in favor of Solomon Sheepface'. A little boy picks the pocket of one of the gazers. In the middle a ragged ballad-seller bawls to an audience of three boys: 'The same is entitled and called No Bribery, a new Song, to an Old tune.' In the background a crowd is faintly indicated."--British Museum online catalogue
