Se réjouissant... de la fin de la Canicule

Honoré Daumier

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a man and a woman standing next to each other. The man is on the right, leaning back slightly with his arms extended forward. He has short, curly hair and a mustache. He wears a dark jacket over a lighter shirt and trousers. The woman on the left is slightly hunched over, wearing a long dress with a high collar and her head covered. She has a distinct facial expression and raised hands. In front of them is a small dog on all fours, looking at them. The background is a plain wall with simple paneling, and the floor is unobtrusive.
