Summary
Caricature of a large bearded man with an oversized head, dangling a purse (?) just out of reach of two much smaller female ballet dancers. Two other dancers surround him, one striking a dance pose behind him, the other clinging to the arm of his chair and gazing up at him adoringly. In the background is a statue of a man and a framed picture.
