- Abstract:
- "Caricature portrait, whole length, of a man in profile walking to the right, grotesquely dressed, probably for a masquerade. In his right hand he holds a rod to each end of which is slung a fox's tail. A large fox's tail hangs from the back of his neck. A bell hangs outwards from the back of his waist. A ribbon flutters from his right arm. He wears a small cap with a tuft of feathers at the top. Rows of feathers (quills) or ribbons hang from his cap, his waist, and from the tops of his stockings which leave his knees bare."--British Museum online catalogue, description of a later state and "At the masquerades (c. 1772) groups of young men from the universities, some dressed as "Tom fools with cap and bells", were conspicuous. ... Evidently intended for C. J. Fox, a leader of fashion and already a favourite subject of caricature."--Curator's comments, British Museum online catalogue
