His use of color and composition not only highlights the physical beauty of the subjects but also conveys a deeper sense of character and emotion. The series to which this print belongs is notable for its innovative approach to combining portraiture with storytelling, a technique that was relatively novel at the time.

His ability to capture the subtleties of human expression and the elegance of the female form has earned him a lasting legacy in the world of art. "Scene 9, Comparison of celebrated beauties and the loyal league" stands as a testament to his artistic prowess and his keen eye for detail.
