Charming and witty 19th-century French satirical lithograph by Frédéric Bouchot (1798–c.1860), a noted lithographer and engraver active in early 19th-century France. Hand-tinted and signed “Bouchot” on the plate in the lower left margin.
The scene humorously depicts a gentleman courting a young lady while her mother chaperones. In a playful attempt to flatter the older woman, he remarks, “You two could be sisters,”—a line that gives the piece its title. Another version of this print, with a different color scheme, is held in the collection of The Getty Research Institute and dated to the 1830s.
Beautifully matted and framed, ready to display.
Measurements: Frames: 18 3/4" by 14 1/2" by .5" approximately.
