Date14 Feb 1800
DescriptionA young man in conversation with a Jewish money-lender. The young man, standing on the left, is fashionably dressed, in a round hat, long breeches with braces and a high, starched cravat. He is addressing the Jewish money-lender standing on the right:
"Well Mordecai - how are you my old Boy - here I am again - spent all my Money in the Country."
The money-lender, who is bearded, with dark hair, and is holding a hat in his left hand, replies:
"Very glad to hear it, you know where to come A.Z (ring at the bell always punctual). I declare I am so glad to see my goot friends in Town again that I could almost find it in my heart to lend my Monies, at fifty per Cent Interest."
