Abstract:
"One of a set of aquatint copies of Rowlandson's watercolours, all signed 'Rowlandson', see British Museum Satires No. 11111 &c. A pawnbroker's shop, with the (?) street door on the left, and on the right a receiving office, a rectangular opening in a wall, dividing the interior from the lobby in which the customers stand. At this stands a gay young courtesan, tattered but comely, looking at a gap-toothed Jew who holds up the ragged shift or chemise which she has brought. A fat bawd grasping a bottle stands behind her, and pushing through the door is a man with a grotesque profile suggesting decay. A barelegged child with a flat-iron and gridiron stands at the counter looking up at the Jew. In the recess behind the Jew goods are piled on shelves, a saucepan, garments, &c. In large letters next the street door is 'Money Lent', with the sign of three balls."--British Museum online catalogue

"The Duke of York, in a pilgrim's gown, wearing a mitre and with a crosier for his staff, approaches the corner of a house where two women, Mrs. Clarke and Miss Taylor, look eagerly from an open window. Behind him his path, 'Road to destruction', leads down from a country house in trees, Oatlands. Beside the path is a stone: 'Stumbling Block'. Near the house the Duchess of York kneels imploringly, raising her arms towards the distant Duke. Behind her is one of her many pet dogs (see British Museum Satires No. 11023). The Duke tramples on two open books: 'Thoughts on Connubial Happiness' and 'Thou shalt not commit Adultery'. He says: "Now for a meeting with my Dearest Dear". On the house many bills are posted: 'Man Traps are placed every Night in these grounds'; 'Diamonds by Mrs Clarke Lapidary to his Highness'; 'This evening will be performed Duke and No Duke [by Tate, 1685] By his Majesties Servts . . .'; 'Agency Office business transacted on moderate Terms'; 'Leakes Pills by appoint. .
