"Since Then" ("Depuis ce temps-la") is a 1874 ink by Alphonse Legros, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting depicts a man sitting on a bench, leaning forward with his elbows on his knees. He is dressed in a long-sleeved shirt and pants, with his shoes visible. A tree trunk is visible behind him, and a small basket sits on the ground to his right. The background of the painting is a soft, muted color. The man's posture conveys a sense of contemplation or introspection, and the overall mood of the painting is one of quiet reflection. The use of drypoint on light green paper adds a sense of subtlety and nuance to the image. For more information on the artistic style of this painting, explore the Romanticism movement.
