Summary

A lady dressed in a grotesque caricature of the prevailing fashion walking (left to right.) by the side of a lake. Her petticoats project behind her in an ascending curve, on which lies a King Charles spaniel. Her hair is dressed in a mountainous inverted pyramid, the apex represented by her head; it is flanked by side-curls and surmounted by interlaced ribbons from which hang streamers of ribbon and lace. 1 January 1777
