Two Standing Ladies (Demoiselles Quantin)

Daniel Nikolaus Chodowiecki

National Gallery of Art

The image shows two women standing side by side with their arms around each other's shoulders. Both women have oval faces, delicate features, and are looking directly at the viewer with slight smiles. They are wearing long dresses with shawls draped over their shoulders, and their hair is covered by fabric headscarves. The image has a monochrome, sepia-toned appearance and the background is plain with no distinct features or objects.
