Party with Six Ladies and the Artist

Daniel Nikolaus Chodowiecki

National Gallery of Art

The image shows six individuals in varied seated and standing positions. The furthest left person is seated facing away from the viewer, looking at a table. Next to them, a person stands slightly bent forward wearing a cloak and a bonnet. In the center, three people are seated close together, two facing away and one facing towards the right with delicate facial features visible. In the foreground, a man with curly hair sits cross-legged on a bench, writing in a notebook. Another figure stands to the right looking downward. The setting appears to be indoors with simple furniture in the background.
