Abstract: "A scene in Hyde Park. Two dandies (see No. 13029) approach a woman in grotesquely fashionable dress, one from the left, the other from the right; she walks in back view through an opening in the rails, in the direction of a sign-post pointing 'To the Artillery Ground', but looks alluringly over her shoulder at the man on the left who leans eagerly towards her. The other stares through a glass."--British Museum online catalogue
