Description |
English: An elderly man appears lost in thought, while his young companion looks hesitantly outwards. This vibrantly colored painting, with its sharp contrasts of light and shadow, is now thought to have been painted in Paris following Corot's return from Italy in 1843. The two sitters are traditionally identified as Italian models. |
