"A toilet scene. The Regent stands in profile to the right at his dressing-table, rouging his cheek with a small brush. An attendant, resembling McMahon, laces the stays which in front resemble a waistcoat; he tugs at the lace, standing on a low stool, using one foot as a fulcrum against his master's posterior (cf. British Museum Satires No. 8287), a small buffer ornamented with goats' heads being attached to this foot. On the oval mirror which reflects the Prince's face sits a monkey, holding on its head a wig with a pyramid of curls above the forehead with large side-whiskers attached. The Prince's hair is similarly arranged. The Prince's tail-coat, in back view, is spreadeagled on a stand. On an ornate wall-bracket inscribed 'Bills' and 'Recetts' are two ornamental files, one filled with bills: 'hatters Bill', 'Poulterers Bill', 'Fishmongers B', 'Hair Dresser', 'Taylors Bill', 'Butchers Bill', 'Docters Bill', 'Silve smiths Bill'; the other empty. A bracket-clock, surmounted by a figure of Time shearing a triple ostrich plume, points to two o'clock (reversed). A round wall-mirror and candle-sconce is surmounted by a figure of Bacchus bestriding a cask. On the dressing-table are pots and jars of 'Tooth Powder', 'Rouge', 'Otto of Roses', and 'Secilian Wash for the Skin'. On the floor is a book, 'The Stripes Poem', which a small dog shaved like a poodle is befouling."--British Museum online catalogue

"Two dark-complexioned money-lenders, Eurasians or Portuguese, sit facing each other at a round table. One (left), with a cane under his arm, appears to be a visitor; he regards his vis-à-vis with a fixed and cunning grin, holding out a bill or cheque, and pointing to an open chest containing money-bags which is on the ground. The other (right) stares angrily, leaning on the table and clutching a large money-bag. He wears a shirt and waistcoat with breeches and shoes; the other wears a short jacket or long spencer, breeches, and boots. The figures are strongly lit, the room is in deep shadow. Apparently a companion plate to No. 11833. Cf. also Nos. 12164, 12165."--British Museum online catalogue
