One Begs in Vain at the Door of the Deaf

Johan Wierix, after Pieter Bruegel the Elder

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a person in a long robe standing in front of a door, with a hood covering their head. They are in front of a brick wall with a wooden door and a metal knocker. The scene is framed, with text inscribed along the edge. In the background, another figure is standing in a courtyard with brick buildings and a tree.
