Legal Advice 1915

"Legal Advice" is a lithograph created by Jean-Louis Forain in 1915. This artwork, currently on display at the Art Institute of Chicago, depicts a courtroom scene where a woman and a man dressed in formal wear, presumably lawyers, are engaged in a heated discussion. The scene is dominated by the expressive figures of the central figures, with a glimpse of the gallery, where numerous spectators watch the unfolding drama. Forain, a renowned artist known for his satirical depictions of French society, uses his masterful hand to create a captivating and poignant commentary on the legal system and the dynamics of courtroom drama.
