Le Dîner à l'auberge 1917 - 1922

"Le Dîner à l'auberge" (Dinner at the Inn), a pen and ink drawing by Jean-Émile Laboureur, depicts a couple dining in an inn. The angular, geometric forms of the figures and furniture are characteristic of Laboureur's style, which was influenced by Cubism. The scene, with its stark lines and simplified details, creates a sense of intimacy and quietude. The drawing's small size emphasizes its focus on the close, personal nature of the dining experience.
