- Abstract
-
"Bedroom scene. A powerfully built man in greatcoat and top-boots throws a dandified youth out of a window, with stern concentration. The houses opposite, lit by a full moon, show that the ground is far below. The victim's head and shoulders are outside; he desperately clutches sash and sill, kicking violently. A terrified woman stands by the bed. Her huge bonnet hangs on the wall. In the struggle the dressing-table glass has been thrown to the floor, where it lies, with lighted candle and watch and seals. Stick, hat, and gloves are on the floor, the victim's hat and coat on a chair."--British Museum online catalogue
