Mother and Child

Richard Beatty

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a charcoal drawing titled "Mother and Child" by Richard Beatty. The drawing features a woman and a child, both with dark hair. The woman's hair is longer and appears to have bangs. She wears a scarf or shawl around her neck and a long-sleeved garment. The child has short hair with bangs and appears to be resting their head on the woman. The background of the drawing is a light tan color with darker spots and marks. The drawing is signed "RB" in the bottom-right corner. The overall style of the drawing is impressionistic and emotive, capturing a tender moment between the woman and child.
