Bernard Baron after William Hogarth

National Gallery of Art

The image shows three individuals from head to toe. The person on the left is an elderly man in ornate clothing. He gestures towards the woman standing in the center, who wears a bonnet and a detailed dress. The man on the right has long hair and a beard, wearing a long coat. The room is elaborate with anatomical models, a skeleton, a skull, and scientific instruments. A bookshelf with jars and medical objects, a window, and a hat on the floor can also be seen.
