Début du « Paradis et la Péri » (2e planche)

Henri Fantin-Latour, 1894

The image depicts two figures in an ethereal setting, focusing on their upper bodies. One person sits on the ground, looking upwards with long dark hair falling over their shoulders. Their facial features are obscured by shadows. They wear a flowing garment. The other figure stands to the right, with partly spread wings. They have lighter hair and wear a gown-like garment. Their right arm is raised, hand gesturing upwards. The background is textured, resembling a cloudy or stormy sky, creating a mysterious atmosphere. The image is in grayscale with shading and texture for depth.
