A peep at Christies; - or - Tally-ho, and his nimeney-pimmeney taking the morning lounge. Miss Farren and Lord Derby walk together inspecting pictures. She, very thin and tall, looks over his head through a glass at a picture in the second row of Zenocrates and Phryne. He looks at the picture immediately below, The Death, a huntsman holding up a fox to the hounds. Lord Derby, much caricatured, very short and obese, wears riding-dress with spurred boots and holds a whip. Miss Farren wears no hat, a dress hanging from the shoulders and trailing her, short sleeves and gloves. Both hold an open catalogue. Date 1796 Sept. 24th
