A couple, much caricatured, bow to each other as they meet on a pavement. The man is very tall with exaggerated long legs wears dandy costume with bell-shaped top-hat, and trousers strapped under high-heeled boots with spurs, his very thin cane is his left hand. The much shorter lady is given height by the scoop of an enormously high bonnet. She wears a coat trimmed in ermine and matching large muff. Another couple on the left and two men with their chests puffed out walk from the right are similarly dressed and caricatured
