- Abstract:
- "An aged and moribund woman (T.Q.L.) sits in an arm-chair directed to the left. A doctor, stout, middle-aged, and sensual, holds her wrist, while putting his arm round a buxom young woman who leans on the back of the chair. They gaze into each other's eyes. On the table at the old woman's elbow are medicine phials, a bowl of 'Composing Draught', and a pill-box inscribed 'Opium'. The doctor has a gold-headed cane inscribed 'Medical Staff'."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state.
