Wellcome Images images@wellcome.ac.uk http://wellcomeimages.org A young couple visit a savant who consults ancient volumes in order to provide counselling to them. The couple appear to be French country people dressed up for the visit. The savant wears a yellow silk (?) banyan with a pattern of pink roses. On the floor to his right are two flasks containing foetuses. On a shelf above are glass vessels containing various liquids. The suggestion is that the couple are asking whether their marriage would be propitious, or, if already married, when they would have children. circa 1833 By: Edouard Henri Theophile PingretPublished: - Copyrighted work available under Creative Commons Attribution only licence CC BY 4.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/
