Du bist schläfrig (Thou art inclined to sleep)

Daniel Nikolaus Chodowiecki

The image shows two full-bodied figures in a natural outdoor setting. On the left, a woman is seated under a tree with her head tilted slightly downward and hands resting in her lap. She has delicate facial features and styled hair, possibly in a bun with curls at the back. She wears a long dress. To her right, a man stands upright with one hand extended towards the woman. He has a beard, wears a turban, a long robe, and loose clothing. The background features foliage and an indistinct structure covered in plants. The lines and shading create depth, suggesting a lush garden setting.
