Strawberries, Scarlet Strawberries

Britische Grafik 1790–1796, published 1795

The artwork depicts a woman shown from head to toe, walking with a basket balanced on her head. She is positioned facing forward, with her left arm raised to steady the basket. Her facial features are visible, and she has curled hair peeking out from under a hat. She wears a white blouse with a fitted brown bodice and a long red skirt, complemented by a blue apron. In her right hand, she holds two small baskets. The background features a street scene with a horse and carriage and buildings under a blue sky. Two men are visible in the background, one sitting and the other leaning on the carriage.
