About this work

This painting depicts a lawyer engaged in conversation with his client, as indicated by the title. The lawyer is dressed in formal attire, while the client is attired in more casual clothing. The scene is set in a formal, possibly legal, setting. The artist's use of lithography creates a sense of depth and texture in the image. The contrast between the formal and casual attire of the lawyer and client adds a layer of visual interest to the scene. The National Gallery of Art, Washington, holds this lithograph on laid paper, created by Forain, Jean-Louis, in 1915.
