Various Subjects Drawn from Life and on Stone: A Paraleytic Woman

Théodore Géricault

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white drawing of four people and a horse in a city setting. The woman on the left wears a long dress and carries a basket, she looks down at a small child wearing a hat. The child holds a stick and wears a dress and apron. To the right, a woman sits on a wooden cart with one leg bent, her head rests on her right hand and her left arm draped over her body. A man stands to the right of the cart and pushes it; he wears a hat, jacket, and boots. In the background, to the right, a horse-drawn carriage with a rider holding a whip. The scene takes place on a city street, next to a brick building with a barred window.
