George Chinnery made this drawing in 1836. It’s a simple scene: a boatwoman carries a child on her back, two pigs wander nearby, and a figure stands outlined in the background. The artist worked fast—just outline and a few quick marks. That outline figure feels like a quick thought, not a finished portrait. Check out another George Chinnery drawing next.
