About this work

This black-and-white print shows a woman in a light dress sitting in a chair, holding a bouquet of flowers. Behind her, a man leans over a table, looking at a small painting. Another man stands nearby, watching. The scene feels intimate, like a quiet moment caught in time. The title at the bottom reads *"Hasta la muerte"*—Spanish for "Until death." This suggests the flowers might symbolize something deeper, like a farewell. Check out The Cleveland Museum of Art to see this print in person.
