A Loge

Henry Bonaventure Monnier

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a scene titled "A Loge" by Henry Bonaventure Monnier. The scene shows a group of people in 19th-century attire gathered in a room with mauve walls. There are eight people visible: four women and four men. The woman closest to the viewer wears a pink dress with a full skirt and a low neckline. She has her back to the viewer and appears to be adjusting her clothing. The woman to her right wears a white dress with a large hat-like hairdo. To her right, a woman wearing a white shawl stands by a mirror. The men are dressed in coats and breeches, with three on a couch to the right and one sitting on a chair. A large mirror stands against the left wall, and a curtain hangs on the back wall. The room appears to have a gray floor. The image is framed by a beige border with writing at the top and bottom. The top of the image reads "Galerie Chiacole" and the center bottom reads "Une Loge".
