Abstract:
A greedy medical practitioner demanding a leg of bacon for payment from a poor family and "The interior of a room showing no trace of actual poverty. The invalid, a man, fully dressed but wearing a nightcap, sits in an upholstered arm-chair by the fire. A little girl stands at his knee; at his side on a tray or table are two bowls and a medicine bottle labelled 'as before'. The physician, a well-dressed man wearing a bag-wig, is about to leave the room (right); he puts coins into the hand of a young woman holding an infant. The room is papered, a half-tester bed with curtains stands against the wall. Tea-things are ranged along the chimney-piece, over which is a framed picture of a Christ healing the blind man."--British Museum online catalogue
