"A slim young man walks in profile to the left holding a small flat umbrella on a long stick, which gives little protection from the slanting rain. He wears a high hat with a cylindrical crown, a short cut-away coat, bulky swathed neck-cloth; long tight breeches reach to his calf, where they are tied with ribbons; his low wrinkled top-boots show striped stockings above them. Two seals hang from his fob. He walks mincingly, holding a small cane. Behind (right) a man bending forward to meet the wind and rain is about to collide with a woman carrying a tub on her head. A high stone wall forms a background. Cf. BMSat 7805."--British Museum online catalogue
