Description
Original title: Entracte / L'Anglaise du nouveau ballet ("Intermission / The Englishwoman of the New Ballet").
In the image appears a naked young woman looking at an old man who is dressed in a suit and looking back at the young woman. An old woman staring at the viewer stands behind the man. The trio is reminiscent of celestinesque scenes with a prostitute, an old woman who acts as a procuress for the young woman and her client.
