Ramón Bayeu y Subias

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white drawing of a woman with a head covering holding a sleeping baby. The woman sits and the baby is on her lap. She holds the baby with her left arm and her right hand supports the baby's back. The woman's head is tilted to the right and she looks forward. Her head covering drapes over her head and right shoulder. She wears a long-sleeved top. The baby has curly hair and rests their head on the woman's right shoulder. The baby's left arm is bent at the elbow and rests on the woman's lap. The background is shaded darker near the edges and lighter in the center. The drawing is surrounded by a white border. The artist's signature is in the bottom corners.
