Wood-engraved print in black with white lines. At centre of image is a small male figure, bald, with a black moustache, black eyebrows and an exaggeratedly large nose. The figure wears a jacket with a pattern of small spots, open over a dark upper garment, and striped trousers. He holds a headless and armless female form, like a tailor's dummy, which is much larger than him and which rests against his left shoulder. The form wears a long dress. His right hand is visible, resting against the form. Behind him, four other headless and limbless female forms are raised above the ground, unclad. The top of a curtain is visible behind them. There is a potted plant in left and right foreground.
