A lady sits at her dressing table, her elaborate mountain of hair being combed by her equally coiffed hair-dresser who stands behind her. The lady turns to see her husband who has just entered the room in riding dress, his whip upraised. Behind him in the doorway, the housemaid, winking at the viewer, raises two fingers above his head. Two portraits hang on the wall in the background
