Capuchin Prologue Satire on Art and Fashion
A fragmentary 18th century satire in Foote style critiques art and portraiture. It mocks Capuchin and a painter, copying behaviors of fashion and society, noting how wigs, faces, and persons are replicated in rooms and exhibitions. The piece pivots on the painter Crisipin and the public's appetite for novelty.
