"Femme Sensible, entends-tu le ramage,etc., etc.," [Sensitive/Sensible Woman, hear my song/warbling, etc. etc.] by C. J. Travies de Villiers, 5 fevrier 1831 Series Title: Faceties de Mr. Mayeux "chez Aubert Editeur du Journal la Caricature au Grand Magasin de Caricatures Galerie Vero Dodat" Lith. De Delaporte In a drawing room, Mayeux leers at a beautiful woman dressed in white, sitting on a red sofa. Mayeux is in the suit of a gentleman and plays a guitar. Mayeux sits on a red chair with one foot on a red upholstered footstool. The smiliing woman looks out at the viewer and tilts her head coquettishly, with one hand on her hip and the other fanning herself. A small white dog between them barks at Mayeux. |
