Figure descriptions
A man and a woman stand at a counter in a jewellery store. The man holds onto the
woman from behind and looks at the clerk on
the other side of the counter. The man holds his hat in his right hand. The woman
uses part of her skirt to hide her face as she
extends her hand toward the clerk and leans away from the counter. There is a basket
on the ground beside her feet. There is a glass
case filled with jewellery on the counter. The clerk reaches over the case and holds
the woman’s hand with one of his hands, and
uses his other hand to slip a ring onto her finger. A small cushion with additional
jewellery sits on the counter beside the glass
case. A second glass case is mounted on the wall. It is filled with decorative objects
such as plates, jugs, and chalices. This case
contains two small curtains which have been pushed to the sides. There is another
curtain at the right side of the store. Full-page
illustration contained within a single-ruled border.
