Caprices: Standing Beggar Woman Carrying a Child on her Back
The image depicts a black and white drawing of a woman carrying a child on her back. The woman is wearing a long dress and has a staff in her left hand. She is facing to the right with her head slightly bowed. The child on her back has their arms wrapped around her neck. The woman appears to be a beggar. In the background to the right is a church with a tall steeple. There are trees and another person on the right. On the left, another person stands on a mound, looking on. The drawing is on off-white paper with a rough texture. The paper appears aged, with visible creases and small tears. A number "10" is written in the top right corner.
