10 O'clock in the Morning. “Monsieur Coquelet having accidentally met Miss Palissandre in the Botanical Garden, to whom he had the good fortune to offer a fairy rose the first of May 1804, had obtained a first date. After having gone to great expense buying a new pair of gloves at 29 Sous, he throws a glance at the mirror before going out to try his good fortune,” plate 4 from La Journé Du Célibataire
