Beggar with Pot

About this work

This sketch shows an older man leaning on a long stick, his weight shifting as he rests. He wears a long, tattered cloak that sways around him, and his clothes look worn at the knees. One hand grips the stick, while the other holds a small pot—maybe for collecting coins or food. The lines are rough and scratchy, almost like they were drawn fast. The artist focused on the folds of the cloak and the wrinkles on his face, making it feel real and lived-in. This is an example of the technique: etching.
