Artist, French, 1808 - 1879

The image shows two people in full body. One person stands upright, facing right, with exaggerated facial features and a hat, while the other is bending over, holding a large container, facing left. Surrounding them are grapevines with human faces instead of grape clusters. The background features dense patterns of leaves and grapevines with some vertical lines suggesting support structures. The setting seems to be outdoors in a vineyard.
