- Abstract
-
"Two profile heads in proximity. A poor woman wearing a plain straw hat (right) looks with anxious supplication at the hideous face of a woman wearing vulgar finery and jewelry, her hands in a muff. The latter scowls contemptuously, with closed eyes. Beneath the design: 'This Passion is frequently brought forward when a rich old Dowager meets a poor relation.'"--British Museum online catalogue
