The female impersonator Malcolm Scott (1872-1929), in drag wearing a black dress and holding a fan while gazing at the viewer. Scott's impersonations of famous female figures from history and popular culture were a big draw at major music halls in the days before World War I. His 'homely' appearance made him a good pantomime Dame, but he would also burlesque some of the great beauties of the day. Here he is copying the pose and figure of Camille Clifford, voluptuous American-Belgian star of 'The Gibson girl', produced in London in 1903: an ugly man burlesquing a woman considered one of the great beauties of the Edwardian era. The print catalogued was sent by Scott to the actress Phyllis Broughton (1862-1926) in 1908
