"Social satire; a tall thin man with a tasselled tricorn hat in one hand and wearing a sword, wig, buckled shoes and rings on both hands steps forward towards a large lady with a wreath in her hair, beauty spots, several rings, a cupid's bow and arrow on a ribbon round her neck, a large muff, and a very low decolletage; behind them their two dogs mimic their actions; the man asks "Beauty need note de foraine aid of ornamen but ees ven unadorn adorn de mos.", to which the woman replies "I really cannot resist the pleasing truth of the bewitching Markeee. - - ah! Sweet Sir I yield, ah!""--British Museum online catalogue

"A foppishly dressed man stands full face, holding a cane against his left shoulder. The fingers of his right hand are extended to display a large ring on the fourth finger. He wears a high-crowned hat, a voluminous swathing round his neck apparently of spotted gauze; a high collar at the back of his head reaches his hat-brim. His breeches are high in the waist and long in the leg where they are tied; low wrinkled top-boots show striped stockings. His coat is cut away to form tails. Beside him is a small dog with a ruff-like collar."--British Museum catalogue
