Go Your Way (Passez Vot'Chemin) is a 1833 by Henri Grevedon, a Romanticism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This is a black-and-white drawing of a woman turned slightly away from us. She wears a wide-brimmed hat with a feather tucked into the band, and her hair is pulled back neatly. Her dress has puffed sleeves and a bow at the waist, with a light scarf draped over her shoulder. The caption below reads *"Passez vot' chemin"*—French for *"Go your way"*—which adds a playful twist. The artist signed it in 1833. Next, check out Romanticism to see how this style played with mood and drama.
