'The Lottery Contrast', 1760. The entrance to Touchpenny, Fortune and Winall's State Lottery Office; clerks are at a table within; oyster woman exulting over winnings, gentleman and boy with basket dismayed at losses, coming out; young woman about to enter, counting coins while an urchin picks her pocket.
