- Abstract
-
"An elopement. A fat woman has fallen on her back from a ladder, knocking down her lover, who lies on his back beneath her. He wears military uniform. Both scream angrily, and a dog (left) barks at her. The ladder, one rung of which is broken, leans against a first-floor window (left) from which the husband looks out, holding a candle. Behind (right), a laughing postilion holds open the door of a post-chaise. A full moon with grinning features looks down from clouds. A lamp projects from the corner of the house."--British Museum online catalogue
