L'Assiette au Beurre

Edouard Couturier

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts a woman standing next to a river or body of water. She is in a slightly bent position, looking down at the water. Her face is not visible as she is turned away from the viewer, with her hair in a loose bun. She is wearing a long, dark gown and holding a small checked-patterned bag. In the background, there is a bridge, buildings, and a dark sky reflected in the water. Text on the left side reads "L'Assiette au Beurre" and "Les Filles-Mères par Couturier," with an artist's signature in the bottom left corner.
