Edouard Eckman after Jacques Callot

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts two full-length illustrated figures standing side by side. Both figures are wearing wide-brimmed hats with plumes, with one figure having multiple large plumes and the other having a singular prominent plume. Their facial features are stylized with elongated noses, pointed chins, and long, wavy hair under their hats. The figures are dressed in capes, puffed knee-length trousers, and sashes or ribbons at the waist. They are depicted wearing flat shoes and holding swords in different positions. The background is plain with a simple line border.
