This work was inspired by a Henry Fuseli illustration for the Rivington Shakespeare edition of ‘The Merry Wives of Windsor’ (c.1805), having a partial portrait of Anthony Van Dyck’s ‘Marie de Raet’ (c.1631) spliced to the enormous grotesque torso of Falstaff, flanked by two apparitional dress maids.
