Artist, French, 1808 - 1879

This is a drawing of two figures in a conversation or inspection inside a room. The figure on the left is hunched, wearing a hat and holding an object, while the figure on the right stands upright with a long face, leaning on a cane. The scene has sketchy shading and no visible decoration. The figures have exaggerated features and poses. The text at the bottom is in French, referencing 'Locataires et Propriétaires' (tenants and landlords).
