"Seurat, see British Museum Satires No. 14882, &c, stands full-face before a curtained archway, displaying himself to ladies (left and right) who crowd to see him. Both arms are raised from the extended elbows, and in his left hand is a wig of short hair that he has just taken off. He says: I am de Anatomie Vivante dat is come to Londres to please all de pretty Lady, and give dem all de much satisfaction. The notorieties are on the left, Mrs. Coutts, the only seated visitor, is the most prominent; she stares up at him through an opera-glass: Poor creature, he seems very little calculated in my opinion to please the ladies, tho' really he is as stout as the Old Banker was. She holds a pamphlet: Claude Seurat or The Living Skeleton. From her arm hangs a reticule ornamented with a flaming heart. Behind her chair (left) is Maria Foote, her arm round Mercandotti's waist. She says: What a very extraordinary Foot; the other answers: And a head as round as a Ball [see British Museum Satires No. 14549]. There are two others (? actresses) on this side. One stoops to finger Seurat's little petticoat, saying, I wonder what this is a yard? The other: I wonder how long he can stand in that position. On the other side, the two most prominent visitors wear wide-brimmed straw hats (cf. British Museum Satires No. 15183); with them is a little girl who wears drawers to the ankle. A hideous woman exclaims What a fright. Another says: I declare he is a greater curiosity than Senior Velluti; a third: My goodness Death upon wires. There are other comments."--British Museum online catalogue
