Two domestic sketches depicting, first: a second wedding anniversary which a husband marks by buying a painting for his wife - which turns out to be one which she had painted though he had disparaged her skills that day. Second: a morning farewell between a married couple where the husband bemoans his wife's absence from breakfast and she his failure to come upstairs and enquire after her health and kiss her farewell.
