Figuren in een rivierbedding met bomen 1851

"L'Automne?" (Autumn?) is a hand-colored lithograph created by Jean Alexis Achard in 1851. The artwork depicts three figures: a man, a woman, and a child. The man is drinking from a pitcher, the woman is feeding the child grapes, and the child is lying down with its eyes closed. This humorous depiction of the season of autumn may have been intended for a calendar or almanac. Achard was known for his satirical and humorous illustrations. This print is a fine example of his signature style, with its lively figures and attention to detail.
