Abstract:
"A strip design of ten couples in different stages of the minuet, All dance in silence; the expressions of the male dancers denote anxiety, determination, or complacency. All are intended to be ugly, or awkward, or both, but the figures have charm, and even in some cases a certain grace. ... None of the men suggests a parson, most are lean and none corpulent by eighteenth-century standards."--British Museum online catalogue, description of a variant state
