Abstract: "An obese, elderly, bottle-nosed man stands in his garden, in profile to the left, his knees flexed, in slippers, ungartered stockings, open waistcoat; he shades his eyes and looks up ecstatically. A cloud of flies buzz round his bald head; a panting spaniel looks up at him. A parrot perches on its open cage. The path is bordered by tulips; many butterflies are in the air."--British Museum online catalogue
