"The Supplier" is a 19th-century etching by Henri-Charles Guérard. The work, created in 1888, features a woman in a kitchen setting, likely a supplier, carrying a large bag filled with produce. The detailed depiction of the woman's clothing and the kitchen's interior, with its stone wall and earthenware, create a sense of realism. The etching is a fine example of Guérard's ability to capture everyday life in a visually engaging way. It's currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
