L'accord du mariage

About this work

This engraving shows three people in a richly decorated room. A woman in a fancy dress stands near a window, holding a baby. A man in a wig leans over her, adjusting something on her sleeve. Another man in a long coat and wig sits nearby, holding a piece of paper and looking at them. The room has fancy moldings and a carved fireplace above the woman’s head. The lines in the print create shadows and textures, making the clothes and furniture look detailed. This is an example of engraving.
