Notes
Medium: Etchings, Hand coloring
Depiction: An overgrown and exuberantly corpulent female is serving as a sample of the Frenchman's skill. Her widely distended mouth is liberally displaying a wonderful set of masitcators. The professor is the typical foreigner of the period, wearing hair.
Signed in plate, lower left: "Rowlandson del.".
Source acquisition
Gift of Dickson Q. Brown, Princeton University Class of 1895.
