Abstract:
"A grotesquely obese man (his hat placed under his plump knees) kneels at the feet of an ugly and bedizened woman, fantastically lean and tall. She holds up a fan, and looks down alluringly at her lover to whom she gives her left hand. They are in the circular portico of a 'Mausoleum' (right). In the background is an avenue and a statue of Hercules, towards which a fat woman and a lean parson of the Dr. Syntax type are walking arm-in-arm. The muscular Hercules is contrasted with the four other types of physique represented."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state

"An obese, elderly man, completely bald, sits in an arm-chair while a shopman pours oil from a bottle (straw-covered like a Chianti flask) on to his scalp, pressing down his head with the left hand. At his feet is a basin to receive the overflow. On the ground is a tall 'Fools Cap', with ears. Behind them stands a woman with a shock of red hair standing on end; she looks in horror at its reflection in a wall-mirror (right).

"[Top image]: A plump, comely woman sits full-face behind a table whose surface forms the base of the design. Her dress is cut low, and her hair piled in a pyramid; her back is reflected in a large wall-mirror. On the table are trays filled with cards, dishes of fruit, a reading lamp, and a plant in a pot. A thin elderly woman, similarly dressed, stands looking at her in profile to the right. [Bottom image]: A fashionably dressed woman sits in profile to the left, at an ornate table raised above the floor of the café, studying a pamphlet or menu on which is the word 'Paris'. Her arm-chair is decorated with ornaments, the arm terminating in a ram's head. Customers and waiters (left) are on a smaller scale. Columns with ornate capitals support the roof, and the wall is decorated with large paintings of nude and heroic figures."--British Museum online catalogue, description of a variant state
