Two elegant sedan chairs have stopped and from their raised roofs a poudre lady and gentleman are eagerly recounting to each other the latest tit-bit of gossip.” From the picture in the Schwabe Collection at Hamburg.

After William Frederick Yeames, R.A. (1835 – 1918). A Russian-born British painter.
