Avocat parlant à sa cliente (Lawyer Talking to His Client) is a 1915 ink by Jean-Louis Forain, held at National Gallery of Art.
This sketch shows a group of people in a dim room. A man in a suit stands near a window, wearing a hat. Three others sit in a row, facing him. One woman leans forward, listening. The lines are rough and quick, like a fast drawing. The artist focused on the moment, not details. The scene looks like a quiet talk in a lawyer’s office. Next, check out lithography to see how this sketch was made.
Jean-Louis Forain (French pronunciation: ; 23 October 1852 – 11 July 1931) was a French Impressionist painter and printmaker, working in media including oils, watercolour, pastel, etching and lithograph.
