Théodule Ribot was a French realist painter, closely associated with Henri Fantin-Latour and
the American painter James Whistler. He distinguished himself in the depiction of
genre scenes, masterfully employing a subdued palette and
powerful chiaroscuro. Very early on, he was compared to the 17th-century Spanish
painter José de Ribera. Our painting perfectly illustrates his style, contrasting
thick, light areas of color with dark, barely brushed backgrounds using the technique of "réserves"
