Young French Marquise in Exile in Lausanne

Französische Grafik 1788–1793, 1789

The image shows three people and a dog within a domestic scene. The first person is a woman holding a child, who is playing with a dog. To the right, another woman is standing. A young boy is kneeling in the foreground, looking into a vessel emitting smoke. The background shows a rustic attic setting with wooden beams, curtains, a messy table, a hat on the floor, and a quilt-covered bed in the corner. Light from a window on the left casts a soft glow over the scene.
