James B. Moore, a lawyer and bon vivant, sits at a table in Mouquin's, a French restaurant in New York, beside a young woman in a blue dress, while Glackens's wife and the critic Charles FitzGerald appear in the mirror behind. Glackens painted it in 1905, in the manner of Manet, and showed it with The Eight in 1908. It is in the Art Institute of Chicago.

Size. Prints at 12×18, 16×24, 24×36 in — 12×18 for a shelf, desk or a gallery-wall grid; 16×24 above a desk, console or in a hallway; 24×36 as the statement piece above a sofa or bed.
Framing. The gallery ground is part of the print, so frame it without a mat — dark wood flatters the lighter palette; black sharpens it.
Pairing. Pairs as a set of three with other famous painting prints (10% off three or more).
