About this work

This painting shows two men in top hats and capes. They are dressed in fancy clothes. The men are talking to each other. The clothes they wear are like what people wore in Paris a long time ago. This tells us about what people thought was fashionable back then. You can learn more about how this was made by looking into the technique: lithography.
