This is a vintage illustration featuring two individuals in period attire. The person on the right appears to be dressed in a dark, buttoned-up outfit with a bow-tie, indicating formal or semi-formal attire that might correspond to male fashion of the time. The second individual is adorned in a lighter colored dress with horizontal stripes and a full skirt, suggesting the style of a female outfit from an older historical period.

They are positioned very close to each other, with the person on the right holding the arm of the one on the left. Their proximity suggests an interaction or perhaps a dance, as is often depicted in artwork from previous centuries involving social gatherings or romantic engagements.

The image includes some French text above and below, including what seems to be a title "LES BEAUX JOURS DE LA VIE" which translates to "The Beautiful Days of Life," potentially implying a series or theme of illustrations dedicated to capturing joyful or significant moments in life. Additional text appears to represent dialogue or a caption, suggesting a narrative element to the scene, though without further content this remains speculative.

The illustration style and the clothing suggest this could be a 19th-century image, and it also has a printed quality to it, indicating that it may have been produced through an older printing process used for books, magazines, or perhaps individual prints.

Here is a description of the image:

The image is a black-and-white caricature titled "UN DÉBUT GALANT" (A Gallant Beginning) from a series called "LES BEAUX JOURS DE LA VIE" (The Beautiful Days of Life), marked as No. 16. It features an interaction between a stout woman and a young boy, presumably a student or a "collégien."

The woman, labeled "La grosse dame," is depicted with an exaggerated, rotund figure, wearing a dress with striped patterns on the bodice and a wide skirt. She has a sly smile on her face and seems to be in a playful or flirtatious mood. The text beneath the image quotes her as saying, "[minaudant] Finissez, M. Victor... vous êtes un véritable Faublas... songez-donc que nous sommes seuls!.." (Finish, Mr. Victor... you are a true Faublas... consider that we are alone!..)

A young boy, identified as "Le Collégien," is kissing the woman's hand. He has a distinctive large head and seems to be taking a risk. The text indicates his thoughts, "Ma foi tant pis, je risque tout... je vas lui embrasser la mam." (Well, so much the worse, I risk everything... I will kiss her mother.) This line reveals the boy's intentions and suggests a somewhat daring or mischievous act.

The cartoon uses exaggerated features and expressions to create a humorous and satirical depiction of a seemingly inappropriate or unconventional interaction, likely for comic effect within the broader context of the series.

The image is a lithograph titled "Un Début Galant" (A Gallant Beginning), which appears to be a humorous or satirical illustration. It is part of a series called "Les Beaux Jours de la Vie" (The Beautiful Days of Life), specifically number 16. The illustration is by Cham (Charles Amédée de Noé), a well-known French caricaturist.

The scene depicts a young boy, dressed in a formal suit, standing beside a much larger woman. The woman is dressed in a striped dress and appears to be significantly taller and more robust than the boy. The boy is reaching up to touch or pinch the woman's cheek, suggesting a playful or flirtatious interaction.

The text below the illustration provides a dialogue between the two characters:

  • The large woman (murmuring): "Finesses, M. Victor... vous êtes un véritable Faublas... songez donc que nous sommes seuls!" (Finesses, Mr. Victor... you are a true Faublas... think that we are alone!)
  • The schoolboy (aside): "Ma foi tant pis, je risque tout... je vas lui embrasser la main..." (Well, too bad, I risk everything... I will kiss her hand...)

The humor in the illustration comes from the contrast in size between the two characters and the boy's confident, gallant behavior towards the woman, despite his young age. The dialogue adds to the comedic effect, highlighting the boy's precociousness and the woman's flirtatious response.
