La soiree des Thuileries

Jean-Baptiste Blaise Simonet after Pierre-Antoine Baudouin

National Gallery of Art

The image shows two individuals, a woman and a man, seated outdoors. The woman is dressed elegantly in 18th-century fashion, with a large hairstyle and ornate dress. She holds a closed fan. The man is reclined comfortably, looking at the woman. They are accompanied by a small dog. The background features a well-kept garden, a large statue on a pedestal, and a moonlit sky with scattered clouds.
