All the men wear conical caps with ear-pieces, some arranged to resemble a fool's cap. The three ladies in the foreground are young and comely; of those in the background, one is enormously fat, others thin and witch-like. On the wall are two dilapidated prints: 'Hannibal' and 'Charles XII' (the head torn off), commanders noted for their disregard of severe weather."--British Museum online catalogueTitle etched below image.Dedication etched below title: To the benevolent ladies of Great Britain, who have so liberally supported the new system of military cloathing, this print is dedicated.Sheet partially trimmed within plate mark.Temporary local subject terms: Buildings: military barracks -- Military uniforms: undergarments -- Female costume, 1793 -- Pictures amplifying subject: portrait of Hannibal -- Pictures amplifying subject: portrait of Charles XII -- Allusion to Hannibal, 247-183 BC -- Allusion to Charles XII, King of Sweden, 1682-1718 -- Weapons: muskets -- Swords.
