J'aimerais autant voir un ouragan ...

Honoré Daumier

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of an elaborate dress on a mannequin-like stand in a garden with a man observing it. The drawing shows a voluminous, structured dress with a crinoline, situated in a garden setting. The dress is positioned centrally and appears to be mounted on a mannequin or structure, as it lacks arms and a visible body above the waistline. To the right, a man stands with his back towards the viewer, wearing a hat and long coat. The garden is detailed with lines and shading, suggesting foliage and pathways, against a backdrop of trees and shrubs.
