Summary

Description
English: Title: The harlots nurse, or modern procuress

Abstract: Print shows an interior view of a room in which a tightly corsetted courtesan admires herself in a mirror as her maid, or procuress, views her from behind. This scene is mirrored by a cat toying with a mouse under a table in the lower left corner, and, in the upper right corner, by an odalisque-like painting of a nude woman reclining on cushions, with one hand raised to catch coins spilling from a bag held by a procuress. Another picture, a half-length portrait of a bare-breasted woman holding a squirrel in her left hand, hangs on the wall in the background. Physical description: 1 print : etching and engraving.
