Supplement to "L'Omnibus de Corinthe"

Désiré Fortoul

National Gallery of Art

The image shows two individuals depicted in a sketch-like drawing style. Both figures are shown with only their heads and shoulders visible, facing each other in close proximity. The person on the left has short, wavy hair styled closely to the head and features sharp, attentive eyes and a pronounced nose. Their mouth is slightly open. They wear a high-collared garment. The person on the right has long hair styled into a loose bun at the top of the head and displays delicate facial features, with closed eyes and a subtle smile. This person holds a small, cup-like object to their lips, from which a tiny omnibus is emerging. There is no visible jewelry on either figure. Above them, the words "OMNIBUS de CORINTHE" are prominently featured. The background of the illustration is plain. Additional text in a decorative script runs along the bottom and side.
