Consists of the "interior of a dispensary where the viscount has brought his child-mistress to visit M.de la Pillule whose remedy has not cured her venereal disease; a large, well-dressed woman (perhaps a procuress) looks angrily at the young man and opens a knife, while the quack polishes his glasses; the room contains numerous medical and scientific objects, including machines for straightening shoulders and for drawing corks, a dried crocodile, a narwhal's tusk, and two mummies."--British Museum online catalogue and After Hogarth's painting "The Inspection" in the National Gallery, London

"The interior of the shop of an apothecary or quack medicine vendor. Three persons have entered (left): the Duchess of Devonshire stands full-face offering the apothecary (right) a purse, while she holds out her right hand to Fox who stands beside and slightly behind her. She says, "His Tail restore, You shall have more". The apothecary, standing in profile to the left, takes the purse saying, "My Famous Pills cure many Ills". He is well dressed and wears a doctor's tie-wig. Fox puts his left hand to his forehead with a distressed expression; under his foot is a paper inscribed 'Dr Leakes Antivanerial Drops'. A lady standing behind Fox, her hands in a muff, says, "Oh poor Fox will Loose fits tail". Behind the apothecary is the shop-window with a counter in front of it. On the counter are two small phials, each labelled Mr Fox, and a pill-box, besides glass jars. In the window are displayed glass bottles of various shapes filled with coloured liquids. (Advertisements of Dr. Leake's pills and drops were frequent in the newspapers and were posted as bills, cf. BMSat 6540.) The duchess wears a 'Fox' favour in her hat which is trimmed with a fox's brush and three ostrich feathers, worn as an emblem of the interest taken by the Prince of Wales in the election. 'Westminster Election', p. 327. Her companion wears a fox's brush in her hat.."--British Museum online catalogue, description of a variant state

Against the wall on two sides of the interior of a ladies' cloak-room at Vauxhall, a bench forms a latrine on which four fashionably dressed ladies are seated. On the right a woman resembling Lady Archer is shown in profile looking to the right as she applies paint to her cheeks in front of a mirror lit by two candles. A young woman seated beside her on the extreme right ties up her garter; this is inscribed 'on things (?) eternal'. She wears a large nosegay. All the women wear hats and have large bosoms and derrières except one, whose hair is ornamented with feathers, &c. On the ground are a glove, a nosegay, and papers inscribed 'Dr Leak venereal' [maker of much-advertised pills], &c. The room is lit by single candles in sconces
