Descrizione dell’immagine
The sketch shows four figures positioned next to each other. There is a person to the left seated in a semi-reclined position with one hand on the ground and the other on a knee. In the center, a child is seated on a soft cushion or drapery, with arms slightly extended. To the right, two figures are depicted standing upright. The figures are drawn with minimal detailing, and there is a faint outline suggesting an indoor setting or structural form in the background.
