It only faintly resembles a composition of 'Lady Hamilton as Saint Cecilia', in which the arms meet only at the tips of the fingers and the gaze is more upwards than sideways. The subject would appear to be a homely middle-aged woman and not a girl of twenty as Lady Hamilton was when she modelled for the Saint Cecilia... it is a nice drawing...'.
