Henri!... vous me jugez bien mal!...

Honoré Daumier

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts two individuals from the waist up. The person on the left is seated, leaning slightly forward with their head resting on their hand and looking to the side. They have pronounced facial features and their hair is thin and pulled back. They are wearing a dark coat with a high-collared shirt or cravat. On the right, the second person is also seated, turned towards the other individual. This person has smooth facial features and dark, short hair styled back. They are wearing a light-colored dress with ruffled edges visible around the neckline and a loose overgarment draped over their shoulders. Their hand rests on the other individual's arm. The background consists of textured shading that gradually fades away, emphasizing the two figures.
