"A scene in the Assembly Rooms, Bath. The stout Master of the Ceremonies brings up an elderly man (right) who bows, chapeau-bras, with an ingratiating smile, to an elderly lady seated against the wall in profile to the right. She looks at him with a disparaging expression. In the foreground (left) a young man is talking ardently to a pretty young woman who inspects the room through an eye-glass. In the background (right) couples are dancing with great vigour and display of leg, probably in a cotillon (cf. BMSat 7441). Above them and on the extreme right is the musicians' gallery. The wall is decorated by large oval mirrors and candle-sconces. A chandelier hangs from the ceiling."--British Museum online catalogue

"The Marquis of Buckingham, tall and bulky, stands against a measuring-post (left); Lord Derby, standing on a table, adjusts the horizontal bar to his head. Buckingham, wearing dark spectacles, stands without his shoes (which lie beside him), and holding his hat; he faces Fox, who is seated on a drum (right), and says: "To Pitt I made my Proposition But he rejected the Condition So I enlist with Opposition". He holds out to Fox a paper: 'Condition to be first Lord of the Admiralty'. Fox, taking the paper, scrutinizes it through a glass with a pleased smile. His drum is inscribed 'C F' and beside him is a spear from whose tasselled head hangs a placard: 'Watch Word Peace'. From the top of the measuring-post flies a flag of three horizontal stripes inscribed 'The Standard of Opposition.'"--British Museum online catalogue
