Croyant l'apercevoir ... is a 1857 ink by Honoré Daumier, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting shows two people in a bedroom, one sitting and one in bed. The sitting person wears a nightcap and looks thoughtful. The scene is quiet and intimate, with the two figures in profile, and the artist uses simple details to create a sense of calm.
