A nude girl reclines on drapery spread under a tree; a tambourine, which she holds with her right hand, is beneath her head. Two naked children, one kneeling and playing a flute, the other, winged, is dancing and playing on a pipe and a tambourine. Drawing good; the figures, particularly that of the man, possess much vigour. This and the design immediately before noticed form a pair." [139]

An old bawd is exhibiting the body of a young, and innocent-looking girl to an antiquated debauchee, who is peering at the naked breasts of the maiden through an eye-glass.A pretty sketch, correctly drawn and with much life; slightly tinted; the treatment is classical." [402] Two naked females, apparently overcome by the fatigue of the chase, are reposing by the trunk of a tree; a quiver and spear lie beside them; and they are surrounded by game. Two satyrs discover them; and the head and shoulders of a third woman are visible behind the tree to the left. A couple of dogs lie in the foreground. Signed: "Rubens pinxit Rowlandson sculpt". The drawing and finish are good, especially of the girl's posteriors—a favourite part with Rowlandson,—and the composition has much life in it." [24] George, Mary Dorothy (1938).

Here are four different compositions on two plates; two only are free, viz., Luxury and Love. In the former a man and woman are sitting up in bed and drinking tea, which a servant girl is offering them; the woman's bosom is bare, and the man presses one of her breasts with his right hand, which is passed round her waist. In Love, a couple are embracing on a couch; the man seems very eager, and the woman quite indifferent. All four compositions are signed: Luxury and Misery simply "T. Rowlandson", while to the other two are added the dates, Harmony 1785, Love 1796.
