L'Innocente du Jour

Philibert-Louis Debucourt

National Gallery of Art

The image displays three figures in the center. Two men support a woman down a step. The woman has delicate features, a serene expression, and an updo with a veil. She wears a long dress. One man has swept-back hair and wears a dark coat with tails. The other man has curly hair and wears a dark coat. The woman holds a fan. The setting is outdoors with greenery and stonework. Behind the figures, there is a large urn on a plinth, surrounded by a decorative wall with plants. In the background, there are more figures, trees, and a path. A reclining lion statue and an urn add to the stone wall.
