Engraving (coloured impression). Below the title: 'Walking fast and far to overtake a Woman, whose shape and air, as viewed en derriere, you have decided that her Face is Angelic, till on eagerly turning round as you pass her – you are petrified by a Gorgon'. A street scene. A stout ugly man on the extreme left turns to look through an eye-glass at a woman with a lean and grotesque profile. She wears a straw bonnet and is blown by the wind, her dress defining her figure, her hands in a large muff. Two men (right) walking hurriedly to the left are much caricatured; one rejects the outstretched hat of a ragged female crossing-sweeper. On the extreme right an ugly military officer puts his arm round a handsome courtesan. The windows of a corner-shop form a background: 'Chevalier Stinkpot Perfumer in General to the Court of St James’s'. Large jars and bottles fill the window, some being inscribed 'court Sticking Plaister, Goula… Lotion, Rouge, Pearl Dentrifice, Maccass[ar] Oil, Pomade Devine'. Grego, 'Rowlandson', ii. 192 f.
