Abstract:
"A scene in the Assembly Rooms, Bath. The stout Master of the Ceremonies brings up an elderly man (right) who bows, chapeau-bras, with an ingratiating smile, to an elderly lady seated against the wall in profile to the right. She looks at him with a disparaging expression. In the foreground (left) a young man is talking ardently to a pretty young woman who inspects the room through an eye-glass. In the background (right) couples are dancing with great vigour and display of leg, probably in a cotillon (cf. BMSat 7441). Above them and on the extreme right is the musicians' gallery. The wall is decorated by large oval mirrors and candle-sconces. A chandelier hangs from the ceiling."--British Museum online catalogue
