An Inventory of Every Article
All Resolutions
The dealers entered her sanctuary and took an inventory of every article.
(Facing p. 270.)
Description:
A woman stands in the middle of a richly decorated room, where movers are beginning to take tapestries and paintings off the walls. She smiles at a furniture dealer who is leaning on a small bookcase, watching her pensively with a pencil to his mouth.
The caption reads in the original French: Les marchands entrèrent dans ce sanctuaire et y inventorièrent tout.
Caption based on Katharine Prescott Wormeley’s translation from A Daughter of Eve. Boston: Roberts Brothers, 1895.
