| Description: |
Finished sketch with pencil framing lines, on laid paper with the watermark of a horn in a crowned shield and the name C. & I. Honig (probably mid-18th century). A very lightly sketched figure in the background, seated on a stone, points to the naked man. The theme possibly refers to some Dutch proverb and the drawing may be preliminary for a book illustration. |
