Hermann-Paul

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts two individuals on sepia-toned paper. The primary figure, a woman, is shown from the waist up facing slightly left with her right hand on her hip. Her facial features are outlined with attention to detail. She has light-colored hair in an updo and wears a large, detailed hat. She is in a jacket with large buttons and visible cuffs. The second figure, a man, is depicted from the chest up, possibly behind a window with shutters. He has facial hair and combed-back hair, wearing a dark outfit. The background includes foliage painted with loose strokes. Printed text on both sides mentions titles and names related to theater or literary works.
