Beggar with His Left Hand Extended, 1631 etching
A cloaked old man in a fur cap stands in profile facing left, one arm pressed to his body and the other hand extended outward. Fine hatched lines build the heavy cloak, baggy trousers and ground shadows in this small etching; the signature and date 1631 appear at upper left.
