"Scene in Assembly Rooms. Three dandies (cf. No. 13029), with the heads respectively of ape, ass, and dog, walk arm-in-arm towards a buffet in a recess (right). The first wears tight evening pantaloons and carries an opera-hat, the others wears hats, trousers (one gathered at the ankle, the other short and wide), and spurred boots, and carry canes. Two pretty and elegant ladies, arm-in-arm (left), watch with amused contempt; one looks through a lorgnette, saying, "What things! non descripts, brought here by the Discovery Ships, Esquimeaux." Below the title: 'Behold ye Dandies, scum of manly race An Ape, an Ass, a Puppy, dress'd like Beaux So in a Glass, Face answers unto Face, That here, each Dandy his own Portrait Shows.'"--British Museum online catalogue

"A corner of a room hung with unframed canvasses is a background for five men, all in profile to the left. Four closely inspect a picture of two vast pigs lying outside a thatched hovel. The foremost, an old man, peers through spectacles held reversed; in his left hand is a 'Catalogue of Pictures by Morl...'. He is identified in the 'Illustrative Description', 1830, and by Grego, as Captain Baillie, the engraver and connoisseur, by Wright and Evans conjecturally as J. J. Angerstein. Behind is a profile identified as that of Mitchell, a banker; next is Caleb Whitefoord, looking through his glass (see BMSats 8169, 8725, &c). Behind him stands George Baker, a patron of English water-colour painters [print collector and bibliophile], holding a paper on which the word 'Pigs' is legible. Standing apart, with a grossly fat nan pressed on a canvas which he raises from the wall, is Mortimer, a picture-dealer and restorer. He puffs and spits from coarse protruding lips a picture, the head and shoulders of an enormous boar. The pictures burlesques of Morland's manner: (1) A grossly fat butcher inspects a fat pig displayed by a farmer; (2) a man with a pitchfork drives pigs from a stackyard; (3) a yokel embraces a haymaker in a barn while a braying donkey looks in at the door; (4) a mounted sportsman at an alehouse door takes a glass from a hugely fat woman; (5) a ragged woman with an infant on her back tells a stolid farmer his fortune. On the floor, in front of the connoisseurs, an empty frame and a bulging portfolio labelled 'Sketches from Nature by G. Morland' lean against the wall."--British Museum online catalogue

Two ugly dandies face each other across a round table as they play cards. Both are fashionably dressed. The one on the right says: "Fifteen six, a flush, and his whig, makes me out -pon honor 'tis really astonishing. You are not in luck." His opponent responds: "Prodigious!! then I am diddled again--Monstrous! Oblige me with a pinch of your mixture or I shall expire!" On the wall behind them on the left is a bust portrait of a man in Roman armour inscribed "My Papa!" and on the right, a French window with a full-length curtain. An ornate rug covers the floor
