Bourgeois se fesant lire, après diner, quelques chapitres...

Honoré Daumier

National Gallery of Art

The image shows two individuals, one seated and one standing. The seated person is facing to the right with their hands clasped in their lap, legs crossed. They have their eyes closed and curly hair, wearing a jacket over a shirt and pants, sitting on a wooden chair. The standing person faces the seated individual, reading from a book with long hair and a focused expression, dressed in a long dress with puffed sleeves. In the background, there is a door, a framed item on the wall, and furniture with a bowl or pot. The image is monochromatic with cross-hatching shading.
