About the piece
Attributed to an unknown 19th-century French artist, this oil on panel work depicts two 'cocottes'—fashionable women of the era—observed in a theater box. The painting is characterized by its rich, painterly execution, highlighting the shimmer of pearls, the delicate textures of their fans, and the dramatic, moody atmosphere of a night at the opera.
