Beggar with a Wooden Leg is a 1630 ink by Rembrandt, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This etching shows a man with a wooden leg, standing with his right hand on a crutch. He wears a long coat, a hat, and a headband, and his face is shaded, making his features hard to see. The man's clothes are loose and wrinkled, and his posture suggests he's leaning on the crutch for support. The background is blank, which makes the man stand out more. If you're interested in seeing more works like this, you could look into the Baroque movement.
