"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

Abstract:
"A handsome woman sits in a bergère (left), watching two men. A young man, wearing a 'Jean-de-Bry coat (see British Museum Satires No. 9425), short double-breasted waistcoat, and long pantaloons, stands with his hands in his coat pockets, talking to an old man wearing a star who stands (right), chapeau-bras, with flexed knees, leaning on a cane. The woman says: "I wish Gentlemen you would come to some decision, - it is terrible to be kept in this suspence!" The young man: "I assure you my Lord - what I ask is extremely reasonable, - for on the world of a Gemmen - If I chose to run the risk - I might make five times the money of her in the Crim-Con line." The old man: "As you cant agree together - I think I am very good to take her off your hands at any rate, - You know Jack - I dont mind a few Guineas one way or the other - but you really over-rate the Article - it is complete forestalling! in short you'll entirely ruin the regular Markets"."--British Museum online catalogue
