Two newly arrived Frenchmen meet on the pavement outside the door of the White Bear (Piccadilly). Their speech and appearance amuse two girls who have just passed (left), and a stable-boy and coachman (right) and the fact that a dog is urinating on the boot of the tall man on the left who is unaware of this action. They wear supposedly English dress: breeches and boots, top-hats with small high crowns, reversing the shape of the prevailing bell-shaped topper (cf. BM Satires 14438). One (right) wears a multi-caped coat (carrick, see BM Satires 12375) and carries its skirts looped over his arm; against his shoulder he holds a huge (furled) umbrella. Their words are below the title: "Gode a Morning Sare, did it rain tow Marrow?--"Yase it vas"--. Above the door is a carved polar bear. In the window (left) above a green blind appear a tureen, bottle, &c.; placards hang against the panes offering Hashed Tongue, Soup Meagre, Hotch Potch, and Mock [Turtle]. On the right of the door is the entrance to the coach-office: The Original White Bear Inn. Coach & Waggon Office--The Original Paris Coach Office.
