This drawing shows a woman riding a donkey while holding a basket. A man walks beside them, carrying a long tool over his shoulder. The background has a few distant figures and a rough, textured landscape. The artist focused on everyday life, not fancy scenes. The lines are simple but full of detail, especially in the clothing and the donkey’s fur. Next, look up Realism to see more works like this.
