Trois demoiselles à marier (recto); Famille bourgeoise convaincue ... (verso)

Honoré Daumier

National Gallery of Art

Three women's bodies are shown in a seated position, facing left. Their facial features are exaggerated in a caricature style. They wear bonnets with ribbons and flowers on their hair and similar voluminous dresses with fitted bodices and full skirts. The setting appears to be a grassy or rural landscape, with distant buildings visible on the horizon. The background is plain, keeping the focus on the figures.
