About this work

This drawing shows a bright, flat scene inside a folded shape. Two men in simple clothes stand in a garden. One holds a bow, the other a stick. Trees, flowers, and grass fill the space. The edges have a repeating pattern of leaves and dots. The folded shape looks like a pocket—this was meant for embroidery. Tiny marks like dots and crosses fill the empty parts. Look up embroidery to see how clothes like this were made.
