An Old Man with a Cape and a Rustic with a Backpack

Giovanni Battista Piranesi, 1750s

The image shows two full-body figures standing. The person on the left is slightly hunched, leaning forward, and holding a cane. They wear a cloak and their face is not detailed. The person on the right stands upright, facing the viewer, possibly gesturing with one hand. They wear a hat and have a large pack on their back. Both figures are sketched with loose, expressive lines. The background is blank.
