- Abstract
-
"An elderly invalid sits in an armchair, his gouty legs swathed, a shawl over his head, a pair of bands shows that he is a parson. He turns to his visitor, an elderly lady seated next him in a similar armchair, wearing a hooded cloak over her cap, and holding a muff. Both talk emphatically, their faces and gestures rendering the subject very expressively. An elderly footman (left) hands two glasses of wine on a salver. Beside the host is a circular table with a bowl; behind the armchairs is a folding screen. Two windows, an oval mirror, a chair and low circular table (left) complete the design. In the manner of a pen drawing."--British Museum online catalogue
