"An elderly man in old-fashioned dress stands at his desk, his right hand on an open ledger, looking down with a calculating grimace. He wears a night-cap and slippers; a pen is behind his ear. His high stool is behind him. In the background another elderly man writes seated at a desk. Papers spiked on files hang from the wall, and lie on the floor, with folio volumes. An 'Invoice' is pasted on the wall. Above a high shelf is the date '1800' etched over '1787', with 'R. 1788'."--British museum online catalogue

"Two heads emerge from the highly-polished boots of their respective owners, which face each other. They are finished portraits of Skeffington and Montagu Mathew, inseparables, see BMSat 9699. Skeffington's boot (left) is a tasselled Hessian; its pointed toe rests on the foot of Mathew's spurred top-boot. Both wear round hats of slightly differing shapes. Skeffington's dark hair is short, falling over his forehead; he has a large whisker. Mathew's fair hair is long and powdered, and tied by a ribbon at the tips; he has a small whisker. Round the two boots are grouped blacking materials. A large open book (left) is 'Essay on Blacking'; by it are bottles labelled 'Mr Broomhills Recipe' and 'The Princes Recipe', and a mixing-pot. Two volumes (right) are 'Chemistry'; on them are bottles labelled 'Pine Apple' and 'Spirit of Salt'. There are also two brushes, a polishing pad, a cake of 'Holdsworth's' blacking, and a broken bottle of 'Royal Blacking'."--British Museum online catalogue
