About this work

This sketch shows a man and woman standing close together. The woman wears a white shawl, green skirt, and a red-and-white headscarf. The man has a dark coat with a fur collar, a red belt, and holds a walking stick. Their clothes look old-fashioned, and the background is plain brown. The artist used quick, loose brushstrokes to suggest fabric and movement. Their faces are simple but expressive, focusing on everyday life.
