Scented Note
All Resolutions
"Mr Granger has just brought in my lady’s saber. There was also a messenger who brought a bunch of flowers and a note. The flowers have no scent, but the note smells good."
Description:
An actress wearing trousers and a lace collar is looking critically at her reflection in a mirror as a maid enters to bring her a saber, a small bunch of flowers, and a scented note. This illustration is from the series “Les actrices.”
The caption reads in the original French: Voilà Monsieur Granger qui apporte le bancal à Madame. Il y a aussi un chasseur qui apporte un bouquet et un billet : le bouquet ne sent rien, mais le billet sent bon.
