Oui je viens, dans son temple...

Honoré Daumier

The image is a black and white illustration featuring two people shown from the waist up. On the left is a person in profile facing right, wearing a classical helmet with a crest, armor, and a visible section of cape or drapery. The person has curly hair peeking out from under the helmet. To the right is another person facing forward with long white hair and beard, sharp facial features, and dressed in flowing robes. The background is indistinct with some shading. Handwritten text at the bottom of the image provides context to the scene.
