"Vrouw vraagt echtscheiding aan bij advocaat" (Woman Requests Divorce From Lawyer), created by Paul Gavarni in 1843, portrays a poignant scene. A woman sits before a lawyer, discussing the legal aspects of her separation. The image, housed at the Rijksmuseum, captures the somber mood with its detailed portrayal of the woman's despondent expression and the lawyer's serious demeanor. This lithograph, belonging to Gavarni’s famous “Impressions de Ménage” series, offers a glimpse into the social anxieties and legal complexities of marital discord in 19th-century Europe.
