About this work

You see two men sitting in a dimly lit studio, smoking pipes. They look deep in thought, surrounded by art supplies. The men are likely artists, and their studio is a bit messy. The studio has a big canvas that says "REFUSÉ", which means rejected. This tells us that the artists might be struggling to get their work accepted. Check out the work of artist: Daumier, Honoré to learn more about his style.
