Auguste Delâtre au travail (Auguste Delâtre at Work)

Maximilien Luce

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a person standing sideways, facing a workbench or table. The individual is wearing a cap and appears to have short hair, or their hair is concealed by the cap. Their facial features are indistinct due to the shading of the sketch. They are dressed in a long-sleeve shirt with rolled-up sleeves and pants secured with a belt. There are objects on the table in front of them, suggesting manual work or crafting. The background includes a window above the person's head, casting light onto the scene.
