Bérénice

Alphonse Legros

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a black and white drawing of a man sitting beside a table with a dog lying on it. The man has short hair and a beard, and wears a robe. He sits on the left, looking right. His right arm rests on the table, and his left arm is bent at the elbow. The table is rectangular and has a dark surface. A dog lies on the table covered with a cloth. The dog's head is on the right side of the table. On the right side of the image, there is a small table against the wall. On top of this table are a vase with plants, and a bottle. The background shows a wall with vertical lines, suggesting wood paneling. The overall atmosphere suggests an interior scene. The title of the work is "Bérénice" and the artist is Alphonse Legros.
