A Pregnant Young Woman and a Young Man with a Staff

Giovanni Battista Piranesi

National Gallery of Art

The image shows two figures standing in full body. The figure on the left is facing slightly towards the right with an extended arm reaching towards the other figure. This person has a profile view, short hair, and may have a headscarf. The figure on the right is bent forward slightly, potentially using a cane for support. Their facial features are simple with curly hair. Both figures wear loose, robe-like garments covering them from shoulder to foot. The figure on the right is holding a cane or staff. The background is plain with no additional context.
