Description |
"Mr de Pourceaugnac. Act 1er Sc. 8." Inv. par Ch. Coypel; Grave par T. de Mare. (France) The scene is from a Moliere play; one of a series of 6 plates after Charles Coypel. Two doctors take the pulse of Monsieur de Pourceaugnac, who rolls his eyes, perhaps because a servant behind approaches with a large syringe. |
