a) L'amour à Paris (Love in Paris) (recto); b) Untitled (verso)

Jean-Louis Forain

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a woman and a man in a dimly lit room. The woman is adjusting her loose garment and the man is lying in bed, looking at her. The woman has dark hair in a bun and the man has short, dark hair and a mustache. There is a table with a hat on it, and a partially visible painting on the wall in the background. The setting appears cozy and intimate.
