EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a moment frozen in time from the year 1885, showcasing the artistic brilliance of John Francis Rigaud. Stepping into an intimate interior scene, we find ourselves amidst a fascinating encounter between a man and a woman. The setting unfolds within the walls of a cozy kitchen where our male protagonist sits comfortably after returning from his hunting expedition.

Meanwhile, our attention is drawn to the enchanting female figure who stands nearby. With one hand reaching for a kitchen utensil and her body turned towards him, she casts an alluring sideways glance at our hunter.
