Fashionable dress is burlesqued, the ladies with very décolletée and short-waisted dress, with short skirts, very wide, flounced, and projecting. One has a grotesque coiffure, hair strained into a pyramid, bound with ribbon, and topped by an absurd flower. The dandified men wear knee-breeches or tight pantaloons with high collars; hair cropped on the neck and projecting like an inverted basin. The room is bare except for festooned curtains."--British Museum online catalogue
