Doorway with Archway and Seated Figure, Etching

This etching shows a stone archway over a dark doorway, reached by a worn step, with a small standing figure at the threshold. A draped figure sits or leans at left, while rounded roofs, foliage, and crumbling walls frame the scene in fine hatched lines on paper.
