Saperlotte!... que je voudrais... que ma femme ait fini...

Honoré Daumier

National Gallery of Art

Two full-length figures are depicted in profile. On the right, a woman stands holding a piece of paper with one hand, the other resting across her chest. She has distinct facial features and neatly styled hair. She is wearing a long dress. Behind her to the left, a man is depicted in a bent stance, wearing a tall top hat and long coat over a patterned outfit with tight-fitting trousers. He appears to be holding something. The background shows a sketchy outdoor setting with rocks and sparse vegetation.
