Promenade

Launay

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a black and white minimalist illustration of two figures. One figure is tall, wearing a long dark robe and a tall hat, with abstract facial features. The other figure is shorter, dressed in a short hooded garment, facing towards the taller figure and reaching out an arm towards them. Both figures are depicted in profile within a rectangular border. The background is plain, with simple lines suggesting a doorway or room. The artwork is in black ink on beige paper.
