Description

This print (with title and captions added) was published in Le Charivari (April 21, 1848) as plate 2 from the series The Artists.
A vertically oriented, gray-toned lithograph depicts an artist's studio. On our left, a bearded man with medium-light skin tone sits hunched, intently modeling a sculpture. Compared to him, the older man with light skin tone on our right stands in a long, dark coat, peering down. Behind them, a disembodied leg and masks hang on a wall textured with cross-hatched shadows, below a torso on a high shelf.
