"Singerie copy of Hogarth's painting, 'A woman swearing a child to a grave citizen'; a pregnant young woman with the face of a cat standing to right, swearing on a book before a monkey-faced magistrate who sits at a bench to left, that the child is by an old man who raises his hands and eyes to heaven, protesting innocence; his cat-faced wife shakes her fist, upbraiding him, and the true father, a young man with a monkey's face, crouches behind the woman, whispering counsel; beside the magistrate to left, two animal-faced children play."--British Museum online catalogue

"The interior of a barber's shop. The barber, ranting and gesticulating wildly, holds up the open tragedy of Alexander the Great; in his right hand is a pair of tongs. His hair hangs loose and on his head is his barber's basin. He is fashionably dressed, but wears an apron, which, blowing aside in his violent action, displays a large hole in his breeches. A stool, jug, &c, have been overturned, hair-pins lie on the ground, a cat flees in alarm. His little apprentice (left), holding a wig and a tress of hair, looks on with amusement, as do a man and woman (right) who look over a flight of stairs which ascends from the room. The room is a poor one, with plaster coming from the wall, a broken candle on the chimney-piece, over which is a torn print of a tragedy-king reclining on a couch. Two wig-boxes stand on the floor, one inscribed 'Tragedy Wigs', the other 'Comedy Wigs'."--British Museum online catalogue
