Lady bouncer notices the hooks on the false beard and tries to remove it.
Just an idea, wouldn't it be better if the original caption is removed, so we can supply our own?

Not a caption, but an observation, common to many illustrations of that era. Did Victorians really have such tiny, tiny feet?? She's a well-built young woman; if she's 5ft 6in tall, her feet are only about 5 1/2 inches long; they should be at least 9 inches by normal standards, I would think??
