Two Seated Figures

Jacques Callot

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of two whimsical seated figures. The image shows two stylized figures, one on the left sitting on a chair with a feathered hat, and the other figure on the right sitting with one knee raised, wearing a long coat and wide-brimmed hat. The figures are depicted with simple, clean lines and display a sense of balance and symmetry in their relaxed poses. The drawing is minimally detailed, concentrating on the playful posture and clothing of each figure.
