Two Sisters-in-Law (Les deux belles-soeurs) is a 1898 ink by Ambroise Vollard, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This picture shows two women sitting back-to-back in a room. One wears a dark dress with a red hat, the other a light dress with a dark shawl. Behind them, a bright yellow wall has green vines and a small window. The floor has a simple pattern with red dots. The artist used bold colors and loose lines to show movement. The women look relaxed, almost lost in thought. Check out lithography to see how this print was made.
