On the left a very thin and would-be fashionable young man stands in profile to the right, smoking a slim cigar. To his right a very broad hackney-coachman puffs at a very long clay pipe. He wears a long greatcoat with capes, over bulging coats and clumsy top-boots, with small top-hat. To his right a sailor in striped shirt and loose white trousers, chewing a quid with a pugnacious sideways look, stands full-face, taking tobacco from his box. On the far right a Frenchman stands full-face, taking a pinch from a snuff-box. A poodle stands beside him. His ear-rings, hat with truncated conical crown, and full white trousers gathered at the ankle indicate his nationality. See British Museum online catalogue

"Brougham stands in profile to the left, selling brooms; he holds up one, two are under his left arm. He wears a barrister's wig and bands, with a small conical cap tied under the chin, a tight-fitting bodice, and a full petticoat to the knee, showing flat feet and large and ill-formed legs in black stockings.
