Aimez-vous les uns les autres is a 1895 ink by Maurice Dumont, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This sketch shows a man in a long dark coat and a tall hat, standing by the water. His hands are in his pockets, and he looks down with a serious face. Next to him is an open wooden box and a few scattered shells on the sand. The drawing is simple but full of small details, like the folds in his coat and the texture of the box. The water and sky are lightly sketched, keeping the focus on the man. If you like this style, look up lithography to see how artists create prints like this.
