Visual Summary

Brief Description

A seated adult with an elaborate hairstyle carries a baby, holding a long patterned fabric

Detailed Description

This black and white ink drawing depicts two figures: an adult and a baby, rendered with expressive brushstrokes on a light background. The adult figure is seated, facing slightly towards the viewer's right, with their body angled to the left. They have an elaborate hairstyle, pulled up high with visible hairpins. Simple lines define their facial features, including eyes, nose, and a small mouth. A baby is strapped to the adult's back, with its head visible above the adult's left shoulder. The adult wears a garment with dark, organic patterns resembling flowers or leaves on the lower portion of the fabric that spreads out on the ground. The adult's hands are positioned in front, holding a long piece of fabric or cloth that extends horizontally to the right side of the composition. This fabric features a faint geometric pattern of intersecting lines. The drawing style is characterized by varying line thickness, from bold outlines to lighter, more delicate strokes.
