- Abstract
-
"A vast and hideous negress (left), almost spherical, is embraced by a lean and elderly military officer with a long pigtail. They are on the ramparts of a heavily fortified castle, indicated by a massive pillar and a raised portcullis beyond which is another lean officer, in back view but looking over his shoulder. In the background are cannon and a sentry. Behind the woman's head is a placard: 'Voluntary Subscription for a Soldiers Widow the smallest donation will be gratefully received--By Rachel Ram Part'."--British Museum online catalogue
