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

"A soldier, apparently on sentry duty on a castle rampart, embraces a pretty young woman, holding his cloak round her. He has whiskers and a moustache and wears a busby with aigrette and bag, indicating an hussar regiment. He wears a sword but his bayonetted musket leans against the wall behind him. The girl wears a curiously shaped cap, with two tails hanging down her back. An officer walking past stops to stare and snigger; behind him is a cannon in an embrasure. In the foreground (left) is a pile of cannon-balls."--British Museum online catalogue

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
