Female curiosity

Print shows a woman in her bedchamber with her maidservant; the woman, with her nightdress hiked up above her waist, kneeling on the bed on one knee while adjusting an enormous wig over her bare buttocks; the maidservant holds a mirror showing the woman's backside view for her to admire. On a table in the background is a bust, combs, and a brush for the wig; in the foreground, a cat with arched back hisses at the reflection in the mirror and a dog investigates the woman's corset lying on the floor.
