Abstract:
"A grotesquely obese man (his hat placed under his plump knees) kneels at the feet of an ugly and bedizened woman, fantastically lean and tall. She holds up a fan, and looks down alluringly at her lover to whom she gives her left hand. They are in the circular portico of a 'Mausoleum' (right). In the background is an avenue and a statue of Hercules, towards which a fat woman and a lean parson of the Dr. Syntax type are walking arm-in-arm. The muscular Hercules is contrasted with the four other types of physique represented."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

Abstract:
"The interior of a large theatrical tent with a raised stage, flats, and a well-drawn and realistic background, and (apparently) a door giving on to the stage. A large, fierce tiger bursts through the flimsy canvas wall, the audience flee in wild confusion or fall to the ground, three men add to the confusion by carrying off sturdy women. On the stage a warrior with a drawn sword staggers back in terror; a shield with a Gorgon's head has fallen from the stage. There is a background of battlements and a bridge."--British Museum online catalogue
