This drawing shows a man and a woman in a music lesson. The woman sits at a tall harp, her hands on the strings, while the man stands beside her, holding a baton and sheet music. A music stand with a hat on top sits nearby, and a small dog watches from the floor. The title at the bottom, *Leçon de Musique*, means "Music Lesson." The artist used a scratchy, sketchy style that feels quick and lively. Next, check out lithography to see how this print was made.
