The Client by Jean Louis Forain: A sketch of a woman in a long dress and a wide-brimmed hat looks toward a man who leans over a desk to her right. Both figures are drawn in a sketchy style with visible pencil marks. The woman's dress extends to the floor and she holds a purse-like object with a long tassel; her hat brim flows to the right. The man wears a suit jacket and white shirt; he rests his arm on a stack of papers on the desk. The background is a plain gray color.
