Artist, French, 1821 - 1888

The image shows a woman and a man standing close to each other. Both individuals are shown from the thighs up. The woman is turned slightly to her right, extending a cup and saucer towards the man. She has a delicate profile with her hair styled under a bonnet and wears a dress with long sleeves and a ruffled collar. The man faces the woman with a side profile visible and has short, dark hair and sharp facial features. He is dressed in a suit or formal jacket, with a ribbon or ascot around his neck and holds a bundle of large, leafy radishes in his left hand, displaying them prominently at his side. The setting appears to be a room with panels or drapes in the background.
