Parasols for 1795 / Js. Gy. des. et fect.

Print shows a man and woman from the back, dressed in a burlesque of the fashions of the day. The woman holds a tiny fringed parasol, the hinged stick bent at a right angle, her small straw hat is trimmed with three enormous aigrettes of straw and her dress hangs limply round her ankles. The man wears a hat with a round crown and an enormous brim curving upwards at the sides and bent down back and front, so that it covers his shoulders. He is thin and elongated, with tail-coat, long breeches, striped stockings, and half-boots of Hessian cut. In his right hand is a cane.
