Peasant with Hat in Hand is a 1622 ink by Jacques Callot, a Baroque work, held at Rosenwald Collection.
This sketch shows two older men walking side by side. One wears a long coat and holds a hat in his hand, while the other has a striped cloak draped over his shoulders. Their faces are wrinkled, and their clothes look worn but carefully drawn. Notice how the lines are rough and scratchy, almost like quick sketches. This style makes the figures feel real and a little rough around the edges. If you like this, check out the technique: etching.
