Les Nuits de Paris

Jean-Louis Forain

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a sketch-style scene with three people. One woman holds a baby, wearing a long dress and a scarf. Another person lies partially hidden in shadows, and a third figure is in profile leaning forward. The setting is indoors with furniture in the foreground and a textured backdrop. The image is rendered in monochrome.
