Abstract:
"A man (right) in shirt and breeches is being laced into stays by a shorter man who stands behind him. The taller man is knock-kneed and has some resemblance to the Duke of Grafton. On the ground is a chased goblet to which a label is attached, "Duplicate 5. 5. 0." The valet or stay-maker is dressed in the prevailing macaroni manner."--British Museum online catalogue
