Le cocu battu et content is a 1780 ink by Jean-Louis Delignon, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This etching depicts a scene of two women in a room, one standing and the other kneeling. The standing woman is dressed in a long, flowing gown with a ruffled hem, while the kneeling woman wears a simpler dress. The room is decorated with a chair, a candelabra, and a mirror. The etching is done in a Romantic style, with intricate details and shading that give the scene a sense of depth and atmosphere. The artist's use of light and shadow adds to the dramatic effect of the scene. The etching is held at the National Gallery of Art, Washington.
