Caprices: Two Standing Beggars and a Cripple

Stefano Della Bella

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a black and white drawing on aged paper. The drawing shows three people with beggars' canes and ragged clothing in the foreground and a town with buildings and a church steeple in the background. The person on the right sits on the ground curled over. To their left are two standing people, one taller than the other. The taller person on the left appears to be speaking with the middle person, who wears a large hat. The drawing includes a signature at the lower right, though it cannot be read. The paper around the drawing has tape residue at the upper left and right corners and appears aged.
