Paul Gavarni’s “An einem Tisch lehnende Frau, mit einem kleinen Glas in der Hand (Wäscherin_)” depicts a woman in profile, likely a washerwoman, as she holds a small glass of wine to her lips. The painting is characterized by a loose and expressive style, typical of Gavarni’s work, which often focused on scenes of everyday life in 19th-century Paris. The woman’s pose, the simple setting, and the intimate nature of the moment evoke a sense of realism and social observation, making it a captivating glimpse into the lives of working-class people during this period. The image is currently housed in the Städel Museum.
