Very good conditions.
The first artwork represents an old female figure with cards and a young girl listening to her. In the center of the composition there is a man with a headgear that is listening to the response too. In the second etching, L'Horoscope Realisé, we see the realization of the response: the young girl stays with a baby and the old city is looking the scene; the man is in the center of the composition and shows the scene to the old lady.
