Abstract:
"The principal belle (right) stoops from the waist with dropped arms (the fashionable attitude), a reticule dangling from her right hand, towards a beau who is arm-in-arm with a Life Guards officer; the latter looks over his shoulder with an insolent stare. A dog shaved in the French manner barks at the lady's short petticoats. The women's dress resembles that of other caricatures of this date except that it is high to the neck. The men wear short-waisted tail-coats with loose and short trousers, generally striped, high collars, and swathed neck-cloths. Below the design: 'The Little Dog Bark'd to see such sport'."--British Museum online catalogue, description of an earlier state
