- Abstract:
- "The vast Daniel Lambert (left), not caricatured, sits full face in a bergere which he completely fills. His hat is on a table beside him. He looks slightly to the right., not directly at Fox who stands in profile, regarding him with an interested smile, and holding his hat behind his back. He stands in front of a small upright chair, placed for a visitor. Fox's head and features are larger than those of Lambert, his girth less, but his paunch at least equally projecting. Below the title: 'Danl Lambert, who at the Age of 36 weighed above 50 Stone, 14 Pounds to the Stone - measured 3 Yards 4 Inches round the Body, and 1 Yard 1 Inch round the Leg, 5 feet 11 Inches high."--British Museum online catalogue
