"Two grotesque and foolish connoisseurs standing admiring a collection of Egyptian statuary, both looking at a mummy case at left, one simpering, pointing and looking through pince-nez, the other squinting through a short spyglass; the antiquities include another mummy case, male and female statues, two sphinxes and a grotesque sculpture of a dog on a plinth decorated with hieroglyphs."--British Museum online catalogue
