La matrone d'Ephese (The Matron of Ephese)

Jean-Baptiste Oudry, pubblicato nel 1759

The image shows two people. One person is seated on the ground with arms crossed over their lap, while the other person is reclining on a stone ledge, reaching towards the seated person. The first person has their hair tied up and wears a blue dress, while the second person has long hair and wears a pink robe with a yellow undergarment showing through the sleeves. An oil lamp is lit on the ledge next to the reclining person. The background depicts an arched stone structure, resembling the interior of a cave or crypt, with scattered rocks on the ground.
