Two courtesans fashionably dressed in the style of the period are shown arm-in-arm, walking along a pavement. One (right) holds up an open sunshade and a card inscribed 'Miss Oldprice Covent Garden'. In 1809 the price of a box at the Theatre Royal Covent Garden was raised from six to seven shillings prompting this satiric comment on the subsequebr inflationary influence that might have on the price of female companionship in that infamous quarter.
