Les sabots

Jacques Couché after Nicolas Lavreince

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a couple seated on the grass beneath a large, leafy tree. The horizon is not distinctly visible in the intimate setting. The detailed engraving style features fine lines creating texture and depth. The monochromatic palette consists of shades of gray and black. A basket with a ribbon is near the couple, with a hat on the grass. Trees extend into the distance with a sky of clouds above.
