"A scene at the door of a Flemish church (right) in a small square. A procession of little girls, uniformly dressed, wearing aprons and sabots, each with a large book under her arm, enters the church, the smallest in the rear. They are followed (left) by a fat Flemish woman wearing a hooded cloak, a book in her hand, a birch-rod hanging from her wrist. On the extreme left a little boy walks between his stout parents, taking a hand of each. Behind, three men are indicated, also with books. On the right three nuns approach the door, skirting the wall of the church. Above their heads is a crucifix in a niche. In the background are gabled buildings."--British Museum online catalogue

"A scene in the market-square of a Flemish town (? Ghent). On the left is a row of booths, under the projecting roof of one a fat woman sits behind a table on which is a teetotum: an arrow swings on a dial. She is surrounded by men who proffer coins; a small boy gapes at this gambling scene. On the right a town-crier reading from a paper and ringing his bell is the chief figure of a group: a peasant woman carrying milk-pails on a yoke, four men, two little girls, a dog. In the right centre priests listen intently to one of their number who stands in back view reading from a paper. Behind (left), a monk takes a woman by the chin. In the background British guardsmen, standing stiffly at attention, are being drilled. Behind them are buildings with steep crow-stepped gables and a church spire. ..."--British Museum online catalogue
