Abstract:
"Whole length portrait of a man standing in profile to the right. In his left hand he holds up a handkerchief, in his right is a cane with a large tassel. The figure is about half the size of others of this series; this, and the length of his sword, suggests that he is very small. He is dressed macaroni-fashion, though his looped club is small. Evidently Cosway, the miniature painter, who was very small, see British Museum Satires No. 6102, and whose portraits this resembles."--British Museum online catalogue
