This sketch shows three figures walking away from us. Two men wear wide-brimmed hats, long capes, and loose pants. One has sandals, the other boots. A small dog in a hat follows behind them. The lines are simple but sharp, focusing on shapes and movement. The artist used a smooth, even tone for the figures, making them look like shadows. The background is almost blank, so the focus stays on the people and the dog. Want to see more work like this? Check out lithography.
