About this work

This sketch shows a man sitting on a chair with his legs stretched out, holding a baby on his lap. Next to him, a woman sits at a small table, stirring a pot. The room looks simple, with a curtain in the background and a basket on the floor. The drawing uses quick, sketchy lines to show movement and texture, especially in the fabric and hair. The artist focused on everyday life, not polished details. Check out cross-hatching to see how artists build shadows with lines.
