Hans Sebald Beham

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white illustration of a group of five people. The scene depicts four men and one woman outdoors. The woman stands on the left with a cap on her head and long dress; she holds a long-handled tool. She appears to be standing behind a man sitting on the ground to the left. The man sitting on the ground faces the right; he wears a cap and a long-sleeved shirt; his body faces right as he looks down and to the left. Another man to the right stands facing the right; he wears a long hat and a long coat; he holds a long tool in both hands. The fourth man kneels on the right; he wears a hat and a short cape; he holds the tool with both hands. The fifth person is on the left; a man kneels and faces the woman. The background contains grass and plants. The sky and background are plain. The image appears to be a woodcut. Two banners curve across the top; they contain writing. The image appears to be old.
