Discussion of Budget

Paul Gavarni

National Gallery of Art

The graphite drawing features two people, with their upper bodies visible. A woman is leaning forward behind a chair, peering closely over the shoulder of a seated man. The woman's hair is styled in an updo, revealing a smooth forehead and delicate facial features, including slightly arched eyebrows and a gentle gaze. She wears a high-collared blouse with intricate detailing. The man, seated with his torso facing slightly away from the viewer, has a mustache and a concentrated expression. His hair is short, and he wears a patterned robe. His focus is directed onto a sheet of paper, which he holds close to a table. The background shows draped curtains and a framed artwork.
