Le Matin (Morning)

James Jacques Joseph Tissot

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a woman from the waist up. She is standing upright, facing forward with slight inclination as if holding something. She has short, curly hair with a decorative hairpiece. She wears a long-sleeved dress with polka dots, a high collar, fitted bodice, and an apron. In her hands, she holds a tray with items like a teapot, cup and saucer, and a small jar. The background includes a chair, framed pictures, a doorway, and heavy drapery.
