Țărancă cu sapa is a 1956 by Corneliu Baba, depicting peasant, held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This sketch shows a person dressed in loose, old-fashioned clothes. They’re holding a walking stick in one hand and a small pot in the other. Their head is covered with a scarf, and their bare feet peek out from under a long skirt. The lines are rough and quick, like a first draft. The clothes and pot suggest daily life, maybe someone from a long time ago. The drawing feels simple but full of character. Look up peasant to see how artists often portrayed everyday people like this.
