About this work

A brown-ink engraved vignette shows a street scene with market stalls under signs reading "Débit de sommeil, ou de songes en tout genre" and "Commerce d'appétit en gros," populated by costumed figures and a boy raising a cloth. The print is credited to Jean-Louis-Ernest Meissonier and carries the caption "Ile des plaisirs (Par Fénelon)," intended as a vignette for a children's fairy-tale book.
