Carnaval

Paul Gavarni

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white drawing of two women indoors. The woman on the left sits in a chair, wearing a head covering and dark dress; she holds a baby to her chest. The woman on the right stands behind, wearing a hooded shawl; she looks down at the seated woman. The seated woman's clothing includes ruffles on the sleeves and chest; she wears dark clothing. The background includes a curtain and a small table. The drawing appears on a page with text at the top and bottom. The scene depicts everyday life; the artist's style seems realistic. The drawing relates to "Carnaval" by Paul Gavarni.
