Abstract:
"Four elderly whist-players, broadly burlesqued. A grotesque woman (left), holding a hand of five low cards in all suits, exclaims (words below the title): "O Lor' Sir! I've | "Lost my Honor!"; she tilts her head so that the aigrette in her turban burns in a candle (unnoticed by the players). Her furious partner: "Then Ma'am You shou'dn't | "have played the Odd Trick. A dandy, warming his back at the fire (left), stares at the conflagration, and an amused footman capers off to the right, tilting a salver."--British Museum online catalogue

"A man sits in profile to the left over a steaming bowl, tilting his chair and blowing the contents of his spoon. He has a grotesque profile; wears a fashionable travelling ulster; his hat and umbrella are on a chair by the small round table. Through a window, above low green slatted blinds, are seen snow-covered roofs and falling snow."--British Museum online catalogue
