Le coup de vent (The Gust of Wind)

Abraham Girardet after Antoine Lebel

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of an outdoor scene with two human figures, a dog, and a cupid. The figures appear engaged in a playful movement, with one gesturing and the other maintaining balance. A dog is nearby, and a cherubic cupid is pointing an arrow. The background includes a rocky landscape with a waterfall and overhanging branches.
