Madamoiselle Parisot |

| Description |
English: Mme Parisot stands on the left toe, full-face, her arms extended and raised slightly above the shoulders, her right leg extended, the toe a little higher than the waist; she points directly at a stage-box (left), looking alluringly to the right. In the box sits the Duke of Queensberry, peering through a quizzing-glass under the raised skirt of the dancer. Behind him stands a fat bishop, looking at her through an opera-glass. The men, but not the dancer, are caricatured. 1796

| Notes |
(Description and comment from M.Dorothy George, 'Catalogue of Political and Personal Satires in the British Museum', VII, 1942) See BMSat 8894. The bishop is perhaps Barrington, Bishop of Durham, who led the outcry against the scanty dress of opera dancers in 1798, see BMSat 9297, &c. Reproduced, Fuchs, 'Die Frau in der Karikatur', 1906, after p. 448. |

Licensing
[edit]This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.  | ||||
