The face only, looking to the left and slightly downwards firmly modelled. The cheek, chin, and throat retouched. A triangular patch on the throat, which remained white in the earlier states, has now two lines across it near the top, and the outline of the jaw, just above it, has been strengthened.
A road overhung with foliage. On the left a row of trees, divided by a path from a garden wall. In the road a small group of figures ; houses on the right. The foliage at the top unfinished. Below the principal subject is a sketch of Jack Straw's Castle (a tavern at Hampstead) with a van at the door.

Eight horses standing in a field. A row of trees in the distance. Only two trees are finished; to right of these there is a mere outline of the tops of the foliage. The effect is fresh and sunny.
Eight horses standing in a field. A row of trees in the distance. All the trees uniformly finished; lines in the sky and much additional work on the grass. Two of the horses, the sixth and seventh from the left, are completely different and face to the right, instead of the left.
On the farther side of the Thames are houseboats, in the foreground a barge with an awning under which a man is seated, to the left rowing boats, two of which carry small sails, move about the river. Unfinished.
Boats and bathing machines are drawn up on the beach, which slopes towards the sea on the right. Near the left side is a mast, which does not extend to the top of the plate ; in the background, houses. The tall mast to the left is drawn in outline and the house in front of which it stands is seen through it. There is no shading towards the left side of the large sail or on the front of the houses that project towards the sea. The horizon line does not extend to the edge of the plate. Seated figures are slightly sketched in the foreground to the right.

A photographer's studio ; one man is seated at work towards the right with a shade over his eyes, another stands behind the chair and watches him. To hide the rectangle in the lower right, the plate is worked over with vigorous lines slanting from right to left.
