  • A corner of the opera house, Mlle Parisot poised on right toe while she leans forward, both arms extended, her left leg extended horizontally toward the audience. Those in the pit are peering under her skirt. In the front row of the pit sit (l. to r.) the Duke of Queensberry peering through an opera-glass, R. B. Sheridan and Charles Fox; William Pitt standing. Among the heads behind are Burke on the extreme right and Bedford next to him.
