Hagar Consoled by an Angel (from a painting by Castiglione) and Three Heads of Old Men (from a painting by Ricci of Jesus and the Adultress)
The image shows two separate drawings. In the upper section, a woman is seated in a flowing robe with her head turned to the right and her arm extended towards a child. Above her is an angelic figure with wings reaching down towards the woman. The background is a soft wash. Below, there are three men's heads in profile facing right, each with distinct features and headgear. The lower section also contains a signature and a handwritten annotation.
