M'sieu Hérault!...v'là Liand'e

Gavarni, Paul, 1804-1866 · 1858

A doorman in his lodge, turned 3/4 to the right, his head bent to one side and back, announces to one of his tenants that we do not see the arrival of a young woman. He is in his shirt, suspenders, one hand on his hip, and holds his broom on the other. In the back, on the right, the young woman elegantly dressed, with her eyes downcast, her handkerchief in front of her mouth, advances in the alley preceding the lodge. In the interior of this lodge, the engraving representing Héro and Léander.
