"A copy of a Rowlandson watercolour, see British Museum Satires No. 11111. A dying and aged man reclines in an arm-chair, facing his lawyer who is writing at a table, evidently on the will; beside him is a treasure-chest. A pretty young woman leans over the scarcely conscious man, taking his chin, while her lover, a young military officer wearing a cocked hat, watches her through an eye-glass from behind the curtains of a bed."--British Museum online catalogue.

"A copy of a Rowlandson watercolour, see British Museum Satires No. 11111. Two hideous prostitutes stand at the counter of a gin-shop (or vault), each with a glass. A dog sits at their feet. On the left a third and comparatively handsome woman is drinking. An upturned face with a glass to the lips is on the extreme right. On the other side of the counter a stout man fills a glass from a bottle. Behind him are huge casks, one inscribed 'Booths Best Gin'. The place is brightly lit, with heavy shadows. A bunch of metal grapes hangs from the roof, catching the light."--British Museum online catalogue.
