"motherhood," Drawing By Jules Germain, 1834

"Motherhood," a drawing enhanced by Jules Germain in 1834.
A young boy and his mother are embracing and holding hands.
The young woman is seated, her arm resting on a small side table adorned with a small bouquet of flowers.
A closed book also lies on the side table. This tender embrace surely interrupted the young mother’s reading.
The subjects are dressed in the fashion of the time: a dress with “Gigots” sleeves, a wide belt buckle, a muslin collar...
In the background, a wallpaper frieze featuring an interlaced floral pattern, set between two panels of wood paneling, hints at a tastefully decorated interior.

This drawing, enhanced with a few touches of watercolor, is signed by Jules Germain, dated 1834, and presented in its original frame made of blackened wood gilded with gold leaf.
