A monochromatic ink painting on aged paper depicts a man walking to the left. The man is dressed as a beggar. He wears a simple loincloth with a frayed cloth wrapped around his waist. His right leg is bare from the knee down. A cloth strip is wrapped around his left leg. He has a bag slung over his shoulder. The man holds a walking stick. His left hand grips the top of the stick. His right hand grips a portion of the stick lower down. The man has a prominent brow, nose, and jaw. He stares forward. Brushstrokes are expressive and loose. The background has a light gray wash. A signature is on the bottom left. The paper edges have a patterned border.
