This is a drawing of a theatre program featuring a sketch of a classical figure. The image shows a printed programme for performances on the 8th and 9th of May, 1895, at L'Œuvre, a theatre offering two plays: "L'École de l'Idéal" by Paul Vérôla and "Le Petit Eyolf" by Henrik Ibsen, translated by Comte Prozor. The top of the program includes a drawing by Félicien Rops, depicted as an outline sketch of a nude, helmeted figure holding a cloth-wrapped head. The drawing is minimalistic with fine line work. The program text is arranged around the drawing, listing play titles, authors, and actors, with neatly organized columns and dots suggesting cast names. The paper is an aged, brownish color.
