A Young woman sits in bed as a doctor and a maid approach.

Sinuous lines and areas of bold colors and light washes describe three figures in a bedroom. A young woman in a frilly nightgown sits up in bed, with a small dog in her lap. She smiles slightly and looks to the right, at a man in a white doctor’s coat. He enters the room, returning her look and carrying a tool box in his left hand and what appears to be a speculum in his right. Behind him, a woman in a maid’s outfit stands in the doorway with a startled expression.
