The Germans Have Gone Away is a 1892 by Jean-Louis Forain, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
In the painting, a man and a girl are shown together. The man is crouched down, and the girl stands beside him. They are in a landscape with a few buildings in the background. The colors used are mostly shades of brown and gray. The man and girl seem to be looking at something on the ground. The man's posture suggests he might be picking something up or examining it closely. The girl's expression is difficult to read, but she appears to be watching the man with interest. This painting is a work by Jean Louis Forain, a French artist known for his contributions to Impressionism and Realism.
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.
