"Prince Leopold (right), in uniform, puts his head through a glassless aperture in a window in the door of his 'Grecian Establish[ment]--Co[burg]', to look intently at a fat Turk who stands in profile to the right, elaborately dressed and holding a long pipe with smoking bowl. The door, partly cut off by the right margin, is flanked by a Corinthian pillar and set in a wall on which are placards: 'This . Shop!!! will shortly open under entire new Management--Vivant [sic] Rex'; a Union Jack poster (partly covered); the Russian eagle, and a fleur-de-lis, the two last inscribed 'Loan'. The Turk: 'What have you taken the Shop? well if you take my advice you will not give Your Customers too much Credit for I can tell you they are a queer set to deal with by the bye they nearly ruined me--and mind that you look sharp after your Shopmen'."--British Museum online catalogue

"An Irish bricklayer's labourer has reached the top of a ladder and steps off onto the coping of a London house. In his hod he carries a fellow-countryman who waves his hat and flourishes his tobacco-pipe, looking down at his bearer. The roof is being re-tiled and is flanked by chimney-stacks. A little climbing-boy stands in a chimney-pot (right), waving his brush and shovel. Two amused faces look up from an attic window (left). The words of the two Irishmen are below the title: 'By the Powers --Here you are at the top o' the ladder & sure enough, --I've won the Pot o' Beer, that's Pat! You've won it sure enough Teddy But I was in hopes at one time Youd a let me Fall!!'"--British Museum online catalogue
