Elle s'élance après lui

Antoine-Jean Duclos after Jean-Michel Moreau

National Gallery of Art

Multiple full-bodied figures are descending down a grassy embankment towards a river. They are wearing period clothing suggesting an 18th-century style, with women in long dresses and men in coats and tricorn hats. The figures are in varied positions, some holding onto each other and some appearing to assist others as they move downward. In the river below, a part of a person's head and arm are visible. Trees and foliage are seen around the figures, with a serene landscape in the distant background featuring rolling hills and a village across the river. The sky is filled with soft clouds.
