"Five ladies play musical instruments; all stand, except a performer on the triangle who is seated (right) in profile to the left. Next her a vast lady, perhaps Lady Buckinghamshire, raises a massive fist to thump a tambourine. The centre figure, who plays the cymbals with graceful energy, her head turned to the left to show a classic profile, may be Lady Charlotte Campbell .... A fat performer on the French horn inflates her cheeks grotesquely. On the extreme left a thin woman, of gipsy-like appearance, plays the true hurdy-gurdy or vielle."--British Museum online catalogue
