"Satire on grand toursts: two Englishmen travelling throught the German countryside in a post-chaise, from right to left; one man threatens the postillion with a pistol and cane urging him to drive faster while the other smiles; the postillion is seated smoking a pipe on a farm horse, one of three drawing the carriage; a paper reading "Drink Gelt to pay by order of ye Queen" protrudes from his pocket, while another reading, "Maut und Drink Gelt" lies on the ground; before engraver's name scratched out."British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
A fashionably dressed young woman sits at a writing table as she seals an envelope with her stamp while her maid, standing in front of the table, waits attentively. A picture on the wall behind them depicts Cupid flying with an envelope in his hand. From behind a curtain on the right, a man peers into the room, curious and wide-eyed. The title perhaps a specific reference to the play of the same title by Benjamin Hoadly
