- Abstract
-
"Lady Strathmore leans back in an armchair, her legs crossed; in her right hand is a birch-rod, she holds in her left hand the hand of a boy, her (supposed) step-son, whom another woman (right) holds out for chastisement. He is crying, the woman is about to take off his breeches. On the extreme right a dinner-table is partly visible, with a large tureen decorated with coat of arms and coronet. Lady Strathmore's hair is decorated with flowers and feathers, her breasts are much exposed and her appearance is meretricious."--British Museum online catalogue
