The Cupboard

Jean-Honoré Fragonard

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Cupboard by Jean-Honoré Fragonard: A black-and-white illustration of a group of people in 18th-century clothing. A man stands in an open cupboard doorway, holding a hat. A woman stands to his left, and two men on the right push the cupboard toward a woman seated on a bed. A dog is positioned at the base of the cupboard. The background features a curtained area, and a tree is visible on the left. The scene is set indoors, and the characters are engaged in a dynamic interaction. The cupboard appears to be large and ornate, with carvings on the top. The woman on the bed looks on, seemingly observing the scene.
