Le midi is a 1776 ink by Emmanuel Jean Nepomucène de Ghendt, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting shows a woman in a long dress, lying on the ground. She's wearing a fancy hat and has a big bow on her dress. There are trees and bushes around her, and a big wall with a gate in the background. The woman looks like she's sleeping or maybe even dead. The painting is very detailed, with lots of lines and textures that make it look realistic. The artist used a special technique called etching to create the image, which gives it a unique look.
