Perdu, monsieur... perdu sur tous les points...

Honoré Daumier

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts two men engaged in conversation. The man on the left is slightly hunched as he leans forward. He has a prominent nose, short hair, and wears a formal suit with a top hat in his left hand. The man on the right stands upright, facing the other man and appears to be speaking. He has a large nose, his hair is partially covered by a barrister's cap, and he is dressed in a lawyer's robe with a white neckband. He holds several documents in his left arm. The setting appears to be indoors with simple, softly shaded walls in the background.
