DescriptionA pediment holds a pot fusing a bull’s head with the horns of a ram (Taurus and Aries) out of which grows a woody shrub that is beginning to bud. On the right is the back of a gentleman playing the bagpipes, wearing nothing but a kilt, whilst paupers look on. On the right, a masked female, wearing a dress adorned with bells (inscribed with ‘FASHION’) and a jester’s hat is watched by a disapproving woman with a paper entitled ‘WOMENS RIGHTS’. An elderly gentleman on the ground is occupied with a puddle and another woman and gentleman of the day are pictured in the background.
