Two Women in an Art Gallery 1868

Jules David's "Two Women in an Art Gallery" from 1868 depicts two fashionably dressed women in an art gallery setting. The artwork, now in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is a watercolor drawing that captures the social scene of 19th-century Paris. The women, possibly sisters or friends, are dressed in elaborate gowns with detailed embellishments, highlighting the contemporary fashion trends of the era. David's work provides a glimpse into the everyday life of the Parisian upper class, capturing the elegance and refinement of the period.
