Abstract:
"An elegant schoolmistress in a neat parlour addresses two visitors, a fat and over-dressed farmer's wife with a daughter of about fifteen, similarly dressed and resembling her mother. On the right is a piano with open music, and a chair on which is propped a needlework picture of Charlotte mourning under a weeping willow, at a tomb with an urn inscribed 'Werter'. The governess holds in her hand a card: 'Terms of B[on] Tons School'; she points to the picture, saying, "You would perhaps like the Young Lady to work something in silks Madam! there is a pretty subject, Charlotte at the Tomb of Werter". The visitor exclaims: "A very pretty piece I pertest! my Dater has a Genii for Drawing! Penelope my dear! you shall work Charlotte at the Tub of Water". The girl, delighted, answers: "La Mother! I shall like that! you know Mounseer Gumboge says: I make Water as natural as Life". Trees are seen through an open window."--British Museum online catalogue
