About this work

This sketch shows three people standing side by side. The woman in the middle has her hands folded and wears a long dress. The two men on either side face away, wearing wide-brimmed hats and holding swords. The artist used a simple line style to show movement and detail. The paper looks old, with a slight yellow tone. Next, look up etching to see how artists like Callot made prints.
