"A satire on high-waisted dresses. A lady (left) stands holding an infant in a long robe (cf. British Museum Satires No. 8897). She wears a round hat of masculine shape trimmed with three small feathers. Her dress hangs in straight folds from a line across, or above, her breast; behind appears the end of a train. Beside her stands a lady in back view: a transparent curtain veil hangs from her small hat. Her dress and a loose train held over the right arm hang from the shoulders. A stone wall forms a dark background to the light figures. See British Museum Satires No. 8896, &c."--British Museum online catalogue
Reversed copy of the first print in the Hogarth's series "Four Times of the Day. The setting is a morning in Covent Garden; in the center of the image, a middle-aged woman walks from the right towards St. Paul's church; the clock on the tower showing 6:55. She is followed by a servant boy carrying her prayer book under his arm as he tries to warm his hands in his pocket and jacket. St. Paul's is partially hidden behind a tavern identified by a sign reading "Tom King's Coffee House." There is a fight in the doorway, one man losing his wig as it flies out the door. In front of the tavern is a fire where two couples embrace as two women warm themselves, the one reaching out to beg of the well-dressed woman; two large baskets with vegetables sit behind the women, with carrots and mushrooms in the right foreground. To the right, in the middle distance, a small crowd, including two small boys with school bags on their backs, surrounds a man holding a placard advertising a remedy known as Dr. Rock's.
