The Masked Ball by Jean-Michel the Younger Moreau: A black and white illustration of a lavish ballroom scene. A large room with a high ceiling and several tall, arched windows with curtains and chandeliers. The windows have columns on either side. Through the windows, another large room is visible with people on balconies. The room is filled with people dressed in 18th-century attire, many wearing masks, dancing and socializing. Men wear suits and wigs, while women wear long dresses. The room has a formal and festive atmosphere. At the bottom of the image, there is a border with French text.
