Hand colored etching on paper titled L'Air. French caption reads: C'est in vain que Caroline invite son frere a abandonner son ballon pour r'attraper ses oiseaux. A woman in a pink dress runs toward her brother who is holding a rope that tethers a balloon or kite. Two birds fly away from a cage. The corner of a house is in the foreground and a windmill is on a hill in the background.
