The wall is panelled and ornamented with mouldings; the floor is carpeted and there are two cane-seated chairs of an unusual pattern [This probably represents the dress of 'Lord P-----' as a macaroni buck at the Pantheon masquerade of 12 May 1773. See 'Oxford Magazine', x. p. 179, where his dress is described]."--British Museum online catalogue, description of a proof state
