C'est bien agréable de jardiner

Honoré Daumier

National Gallery of Art

The image shows two characters in casual or rural outdoor attire standing together in a garden setting. The person on the left has long, curly hair and hands in their pockets, while the person on the right is bent forward holding a hat and a shovel stuck in the ground. Both characters have exaggerated and simplistic facial features, depicted in a cartoonish style. The background features line drawings of plants and bushes, and there is text visible at the top and bottom of the image.
