Object number177

DescriptionThis is a coloured drawing of a woman sitting on grass. She is wearing a blue blouse and a black skirt with a beige coloured apron. She is facing away from the viewer. She has reddish brown hair tied up. The sky behind is mainly beige with a blue area at the top. There is an odd sketch of a hand in the sky that does not seem to be part of the composition, however, if compared to the watercolour of 'The Toy Seller' (Object Number 179), this is most likely the hand of the toy seller and part of the tray he is carrying.
