Artist, French, 1808 - 1879

The image features two cartoonish characters shown from head to toe. The figure on the left is in a walking position, leading with his right foot and appears to be holding a stick or cane in his left hand. He has exaggerated facial features with large eyes and a prominent nose and is wearing a cap and a loose coat. The other figure is turned slightly towards the first, with a surprised expression on his face, and is reaching out to grab the first character by the collar. He has equally large eyes, a smaller nose, and a small cap on his head, wearing a suit. Both figures are barefoot. In the background, there is a large bush and a tree, with fields or open land extending into the distance. There are no visible items of jewelry on either figure, nor are they holding any objects except for the stick in the first figure’s hand.
