- Abstract
-
"Scene at the corner of a street leading to Cavendish Square, which is indicated by the equestrian statue of the Duke of Cumberland (erected 1770), immediately outside a ground-floor window at the corner of 'Union Street'. A handsome well-dressed woman holding up a parasol, raises her skirt, displaying her leg above the knee, at the same time so stepping on a loose paving-stone that a shower of mud is directed against a footman who is leering up at her through the bars protecting a basement window. An elderly man stares from the window above."--British Museum online catalogue
