Beggar Woman with Rosary

Jacques Callot

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a full-body profile of a person standing and leaning forward slightly while holding a walking stick in their right hand. Their head is inclined downward, with aged features on their face. The person wears a hooded garment covering their hair and a long robe reaching the ground. They hold a rosary in their left hand, with a visible cross at the end. The background is plain.
