This sketch shows a woman holding a shield with a bow and arrows. Around her are three small, chubby kids—two standing, one crawling. The woman’s face is smooth, almost like a statue. The kids look busy, one pointing up, another holding a scroll. The drawing feels loose and quick, like the artist sketched fast. The paper is light, and the lines are soft in some spots, rough in others. Want to see more sketches like this? Look up Jacob de Wit.
