The convalescent is a 1894 oil by Salvador Sánchez Barbudo, a Post-Impressionism work, held at National Museum of Fine Arts, Argentina.
This painting shows a woman in a white dress sitting on a couch, looking to the left. She's surrounded by several men in suits, some sitting and others standing. The room is decorated with gold accents and has a red carpet. The woman seems to be the main focus, with the men gathered around her. The painting has a lot of detail, with intricate patterns on the couch and the men's clothes. The use of chiaroscuro in this painting creates a sense of depth and contrast, drawing the viewer's eye to the woman.
