Description
Composition in black and white. Predominance of contour lines and some shaded. Study of the figure, from the waist down, carrying burden on the back, occupying almost the entire area of the composition against a plain background. The figure is back, turned slightly to the right, suggesting being naked. It has strong muscles and carries on the huge burden back, which you see only part. Megs apart, and the on the right is more forward than the on the left. Walk on the right profile and on the left back.
