A French tooth-drawer wearing a turban and pretending to be Turkish in order to attract clients, holding a large tooth and an enormous tooth extractor. Engraving by N. Dupuis after E. Pater.
Lettering: L'arracheur de dents. Ce Turc né dans nos murs, grace à notre folie, Ne doit tous ses succés qu'à son vaste turban. Il nous apprend que dans la vie On ne peut reussir sans être charlatan. Eisen pater pinxit. N. Dupuis sculp.
