Print
A horizontally oriented print in black ink depicts two figures walking away on a rain-slicked path toward a house behind a gate. Centered, a man carrying a lantern and a woman walk huddled under an umbrella, followed by a small dog. The wet ground reflects their silhouettes and nearby stone urns. The landscape is rendered with dense, dark shading, creating a hazy, atmospheric effect. French text is inscribed in the bottom margin.
