Artist, French, 1864 - 1901

The image is an ink drawing showing a full-body portrait of a standing woman and a partial view of a person lying in bed. The woman stands beside the bed, leaning slightly towards the person in bed with a faint smile. She is wearing a loose gown, slippers, and holding an object. The person in bed is only partially visible, with their head on a pillow, likely sleeping. The background is minimal, with outlines hinting at curtains or a plain wall, and a simplistic bed. The scene is drawn in a loose, sketchy style, with a largely blank background.
