Woman Entering a Fiacre (recto); Right Profile of Man Wearing Tall Hat (verso)

Jean Louis Forain

Cleveland Museum of Art

A pencil drawing on the front of a woman entering a fiacre with a man wearing a tall hat to her right, with the woman positioned toward the left and slightly turned away from the viewer. She has a parasol and wears a skirt and jacket. The fiacre’s wheel and a section of the man’s body are visible. The back displays a right profile of a man wearing a tall hat. The man wears a dark jacket with a white shirt and his body faces right. The drawings are on two sides of the same piece of paper. The paper on the front side has darker brown spots around the edges. Both drawings are rendered in gray pencil, with the woman and fiacre on the left and the man on the right. The background behind them is white.
