Le Retour de Paris Flounces, George Cruikshank: 1819
Return
The women have returned from studies in museums in Paris.
What have they so diligently studied? They have studied
the use of flounces (latest French fashions) they remain
as incapable of intelligent conversation as when they left:
their noisy and empty verbosity will continue to annoy!
