The scene comes from Balzac's story "Une bonne fortune," in Contes bruns (1832).

The text beneath the image reads "Quittons cette femme, dit d'une voix sombre Lord Barndale, que ne pouvait parvener à rendre a sa fille l'usage de ses sens"

or

"Let's leave this woman, said in a somber voice Lord Barndale, who could not manage to restore his daughter to the use of her senses."

The printer is identified at lower right directly beneath the image.
