Abstract:
"Extravagantly dressed pedestrians promenade beside (?) the Serpentine. Almost all are arm-in-arm, an exception being an ugly and complacent woman whose face is covered by a long transparent lace veil. The women walk leaning back, as in BM Satires 14438; they point their toes as if at a dancing class, drawing up their skirts, but these are less long. A fashion for stripes for women's dresses and for trousers is apparent, and for patterned materials with scalloped flounces, furbelows, ribbons, and over-trimmed hats. Curled hair frames the face and rests on the shoulders. Waists are still wasp-like for both sexes. Men wear checked neck-cloths with high collars. Much play is made with eye-glasses and canes. Hessian and top-boots are corrugated, spurs are oddly absent. The women wear very flat slippers, tied at the ankle. Beyond the water are trees."--British Museum online catalogue

"Promenaders in Hyde Park illustrate these titles. [1] A dandy walks, right to left, jauntily rakish, holding a lorgnette and glove in a gloved hand. He wears a large bell-shaped top-hat, beneath which projects a great tuft of curled hair. Under his arm is a rolled umbrella. [2] A Quaker, in a shallow broad-brimmed hat, walks primly (right to left) with a young (twin) daughter on each arm. He holds a large gamp umbrella, fastened and point downwards. [3] A thin man wearing a long greatcoat and seedy top-hat, walks (left to right) with an expression of acute melancholy. He trails behind him an unfastened umbrella. He faces heavy wind and slanting rain. Beside him is a small dead tree. Near each is an appropriate dog."--British Museum online catalogue

Abstract:
A Hyde Park scene illustrating the development in costume since the plate for 1818 (See British Museum satire 13055). The figures seem to be portraits as well as types. The men wear exaggerated hats. A dandy on the left has his hands in his trouser pockets. Collars are more pointed, and cravats and coat collars are higher. The women's dresses are still high-waisted, but now reach to the feet and more bell-shaped. The women no longer tip-toe and the stoop, less pronounced. Those riding and driving in the middle distance include Lord Petersham (left) who drives a high gig, with a groom at his side. The Persian Ambassador is riding with two of his suite (right).
