- "A short fat man, much caricatured, stands directed slightly to the right, looking at the spectator, his fingers spread in a deprecatory gesture. He is grotesquely dressed in an attempt to follow the fashion. His long breeches reach almost to his ankles, and resemble trousers. He wears a bulky ill-fitting spencer (see BMSat 8192) over his coat. His hat is round with a curved brim, his swathed neckcloth terminates in a bow. His short striped waistcoat does not reach below the ends of his neckcloth. From it hangs a ribbon in place of a watch and seals. Under his left arm is a bludgeon. Beside him (right) is a small dog. Beneath the title: 'Did you ever see such a Fool as my Wife has made of me?'"--British Museum online catalogue
