"A grotesquely fat woman, much decolletee, sits at a piano (left) singing and playing, her left foot on the pedal. With upturned eyes and gaping mouth she sings: "Just like love ..." [three times]. Her music book is open at: 'Just like Love a Favorite Song Sung by Mr Braham'. A fat man in old-fashioned dress, standing just behind her, his hands raised in surprise, turns to address two younger men who are fashionably dressed. He asks: "Don't my Lady play and Sing delightfully? she was finished under the famous Sigr Squawlletti." The man on the extreme right, holding his friend's arm, says: "By G- if the Signior had been under my Lady she would have finish'd him! would'nt She Sir Thomas." The other laughs: "Ha! Ha! Ha! come that's a good one!"--British Museum online catalogue
