A satirical mezzotint droll depicting a country attorney seated left at a desk dressed casually wearing a red turban, robe, and glasses holding a quill in his mouth, his right hand lifted, his clerk to his left, while his clients offer him payment in the form of a dead rabbit, a chicken and a suckling pig, deeds lie on the floor, a map on the wall, and books entitle Strange Reports and Burn's Justice sit on a shelf top tight. Bowles & Carver was a publishing partnership between Henry Carington Bowles II (son of Carington Bowles I) and Samuel Carver. It was a continuation of the Bowles' business in St Paul's Churchyard, London, between 1793 and 1832. In 1818, Bowles built Myddelton House in Enfield. A view of the shop when trading as Bowles and Carver appears in Thomas Hornor's Prospectus: View of London and the surrounding country (1823). BM Satires 3766, Lennox-Boyd ii/ii
