"A lady sits full-face behind a dressing-table, an open book in her hand, while a hairdresser (left) curls her hair with tongs; a cloud of smoke shows that her hair is burning, her expression shows that it is painful. She wears a dressing-gown. Beside her (right) stands another woman, her mouth open as if singing. The hairdresser stands legs astride with an expression of fierce determination. Two combs are stuck in his hair. The two side-flaps of the small folding dressing-table are open, and the small mirror stands in the centre. On the table are toilet boxes and a tress of hair. Above the design is etched a quote from George, Lord Lyttleton's Song: "Alas! by some degree of woe We every bliss must gain, The heart can ne'er a transport know, That never felt a pain."'--British Museum online catalogue
