Sur le canape 

This ink and wash drawing by French artist Jean-Louis Forain, titled "Sur le canape" (On the Couch), captures a scene of Parisian social life. The artist's signature style of loose, gestural lines and washes creates a sense of immediacy and movement. Forain's depiction of the figures, their clothing, and their surroundings reveals his keen interest in the social dynamics of his time, often commenting on the upper class through satirical caricatures. The work is a study in form and composition, capturing the energy and vibrancy of Parisian life.
