Artist, French, 1808 - 1879

The image shows a woman sitting beside a bed where two figures lie. The woman faces the bed, appearing to speak or call out. She has long, light-colored hair, a distinct nose, and a prominent chin. She wears a nightshirt and a pointed nightcap. One figure in bed has short, dark hair and appears to be asleep. The other figure, likely a child, sits in bed with an open-mouthed expression, wearing a bonnet and wrapped in a blanket. Intricately patterned drapes fill the background around the bed.
