Vot' servante, mosieu! - Madame, votre serviteur...

Gavarni, Paul, 1804-1866 · December 29, 1847

In a masked ball a young man dressed as a woman, heading for a staircase on the right with a pierrot who gives him his arm, stopped and, turning to the side of a woman disguised as a man, made him a bow in raising her skirt with both her hands. The woman, seen from back to middle, frock coat and black pants, a mask on the face, returns her salvation.
