"Voyons! Mme Majeste..."

Paul Gavarni

National Gallery of Art

Two women are shown in conversation. The woman on the left is in profile and leans slightly forward towards the woman on the right. She wears a headscarf and holds a basket. The woman on the right faces forward with her head turned towards the other woman. Both are dressed in layered clothing, and the background depicts a busy outdoor setting, possibly a market.
