"A lady stands in profile to the left removing her gloves; her head is turned to the spectator. Against the wall of the room, which appears from the carpet and an oval mirror in a carved frame to be a drawing-room, stands a commode, which if the lid were closed would resemble an ordinary chair. She wears the projections at bust and waist which were the subjects of caricature c. 1786-7 (cf. BMSats 6874, 7099, &c). Her hat, poised sideways, has a steeple crown."--British Museum online catalogue
