- Abstract
-
"Two pretty women run towards each other on velocipedes, see No. 13399. Their short full skirts do not impede their action, and they wear long frilled drawers above neat ankle-boots. Both are very décolletée, one wears a round cap with feathers and tassels, the other an enormous feathered bonnet, with flowers under the scoop. Behind (left) is a country house, a sign-post (right) points towards it: 'To Lark Hall'. The more voluptuous lady (right) says: "I do not see why Ladies should not have a Lark as well as the Gentlemen.""--British Museum online catalogue
