Vieillard à la cape et paysan à la hotte

Giovanni Battista Piranesi, années 1750

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.
