a) At the Conference (recto); b) Reclining Figure (verso) is a 1919 crayon by Jean-Louis Forain, held at National Gallery of Art.
This image shows a sketch of two men in a room. The man on the left is standing, wearing a long coat, and appears to be speaking or gesturing. The man on the right is seated, with his head turned away from the viewer. The background of the image is a light color, with some darker lines suggesting the presence of furniture or other objects in the room. The sketch is drawn in black crayon on laid paper, giving it a rough, textured appearance. The artist's use of bold lines and expressive gestures creates a sense of energy and movement in the image. The National Gallery of Art, Washington, holds this artwork.
