"A promenade in Hyde Park. Pelisses heavily trimmed with fur, large muffs, and feathered hats are conspicuous; skirts, slightly trained, reach the ground. One woman wears a much-patterned and flounced dress, without a wrap, and a bonnet surmounted with realistic flowers. The leaning back attitude in walking (see British Museum Satires No. 14438) is that of one woman only; she takes the arm of a dandy in frogged coat and inflated white trousers. A man in a tight-waisted overcoat with large buttons worn with boots, breeches, and a checked neck-cloth, his hands in his pockets, is conspicuous: the lady taking his arm wears much ermine, with a muff and a hat which is a base for towering roses and a dangling lace veil. Uniforms are absent."--British Museum online catalogue

On the right, directed to the left, stands a country girl whose round hat, ringlets, kerchief, and looped-up petticoats resemble those of the fashionable lady, but without the exaggeration of the latter."--British Museum online catalogue

Full length depiction of an enormously fat gloved lady wearing a giant beribboned calash hat as she stands in an outdoor setting facing right.

"A lady stands in profile to the right, her hands in an enormous globular muff, on which rests the projecting gauze which covers her breast. Her petticoats project at the back in the fashionable manner, but scarcely balance the muff. Her wide-brimmed hat is even more exaggerated, and projects all round her like a tent. Her hair is puffed out at the sides with curls which rest on her false breast, and a looped and plaited queue which reaches nearly to her projecting petticoats."--British Museum online catalogue
