Abstract:

"Queensberry (right), walking beside a buxom young milliner, puts out an arm to touch her. His left hand is in a large muff. He wears a star and from his coat-pocket issue bottles labelled 'Renovating Balsam' and 'Velno's Vegetable Syrup' (see British Museum Satires No. 7592). She carries an arched-topped coffer (as in British Museum Satires No. 4923) and seems not unwilling."--British Museum online catalogue.
