Bonsoir chérie...si ton épicier nous voyait...

The image shows two people in the foreground engaging in a kiss. They are both in profile, with the man bending towards the woman, who is slightly leaning back. The man wears a dark coat and a top hat. The woman's clothing is not distinctly detailed; she appears to have her head covered with a hood or a scarf. Both individuals are depicted without clear facial details due to the simplistic sketch style. In the background, there is a building facade featuring the word "EPICERIE." Above them, slightly to the left, another figure is visible, peering out from behind half-closed shutters of a window. This person wears a nightcap, peering downwards toward the couple with their head resting on their hand. The setting suggests an urban environment, and the scene is rendered in a monochrome, sketch-like style.
