"Five elderly barristers are grouped round an oblong table on which are writing-materials; all wear large tie-wigs. The client sits 'chapeau-bras', hands on knees, in an arm-chair (left), listening with gaping mouth and stupidly eager expression. He appears to be a boorish country gentleman in London dress. The counsel beside him reads from a large document: 'Know all men by these presents'. Another also reads. Two others watch and listen with cynical intentness. The fifth (right), an aged man wearing gauntlet gloves, sits with closed eyes in an arm-chair facing the client. On the wall are pinned legal notices: 'Court of Kings Bench Dn Common Pleas ... [&c.]'. Heavy folios lie open on the floor."--British Museum online catalogue.
