- Abstract:
- Racist caricature lampooning the inept attempt by African Americans to mimic the leisure culture of white high society depicting an African American tea party hosted by "Mr. Ludovico" and "Miss Rosabella." To the far right of the table, "Miss Rosabella" pours steaming hot tea into a cup which tips over and spills onto a startled cat on the floor. To her right, "Mr. Ludovico" attends to the needs of "Miss Araminta" who protests his taking the trouble. Next to them, a disgruntled guest demands "anoder cup" of tea. An African American servant and the other guests, a mother holding her baby and her small son, observe and comment about the spilled tea on the cat and the flirtatious behavior of "Mr. Ludovico."

- Abstract:
- "An obese, elderly, bottle-nosed man stands in his garden, in profile to the left, his knees flexed, in slippers, ungartered stockings, open waistcoat; he shades his eyes and looks up ecstatically. A cloud of flies buzz round his bald head; a panting spaniel looks up at him. A parrot perches on its open cage. The path is bordered by tulips; many butterflies are in the air."--British Museum online catalogue

- Abstract:
- "A pedestrian struggles through deep slushy snow, facing driving snow, with a broken umbrella, the spokes projecting through the cover. He clutches at his cloak and hat; he wears gaiters to the knee with socks over them, and overshoes. Cape and comforter stream behind him. In the background is a row of three- and four-storied houses, some with shop-fronts. He shouts his greeting in the teeth of the storm to the woman in British Museum Satires No. 15000, a companion plate with the same signatures and imprint. A carriage and pair faces the storm, the coachman's cape swirling above his head. Men shovel the snow from the roofs, overturning a passer-by."--British Museum online catalogue

- Abstract:
- "In an ornate foreshortened bed which is the centre of the design, propped against a frilled pillow, is a lady, dismayed at the sight of a grotesque infant which a nurse (right) holds out to her. Her husband (left) is a grotesque dandy, wearing a small top-hat on bunched-out hair, and with a heavy black moustache, and whiskers which meet, projecting from the chin. He inspects the child, looking through an eye-glass in the handle of a riding-switch. The infant is a little replica, heavily bearded, of its father, and holds up a similar switch; it wears a trimmed chemise with spurred boots. The father: Is it possible that I can be the Author of such an Eccentric production. The mother: Oh the little Brute! Who can doubt that when they see the horrid Likeness. The nurse: Brute indeed! why its a perfect angel And the very model of his Pa! Oh who can help Longing to Kiss him. A fashionable interior is indicated."--British Museum online catalogue
