L'indiscret

About this work

This etching shows two people in a fancy indoor scene. The man on the left wears a long coat and holds a scroll, while the woman on the right stands near a draped chair, holding a fan and a small object. The background has ornate patterns, and the whole image is framed by decorative borders with scrollwork and flowers. The title *L'indiscret* hints at a playful or curious moment between the two figures. The artist used fine lines to create shadows and textures, making the scene look detailed yet soft. Next, look up etching to see how artists like this one use acid and needles to make prints.
