The Grandmother

Honoré Daumier,

The image shows the upper bodies and heads of two figures. An older person is seated and holding a baby. The older person is sitting with their head slightly tilted upwards, gazing at the baby. Their facial features are aged with prominent lines, and they have short hair styled close to the head. They are wearing a loose-fitting garment with long sleeves. The baby is facing the older person, supported by their arms and legs resting on their lap. The baby appears to have a smooth head and its body is depicted with sketchy lines. No additional objects can be seen. The background is plain.
