She is dressed in simple, ragged clothing, including a headscarf and a cloak. Her right hand supports her head, suggesting fatigue or despair, while her left hand holds an object that is not clear. The detailed line work emphasizes the textures of her clothing and the background, which includes a discernible wall and some indistinct markings. The overall mood of the image conveys a sense of poverty and hardship. The text "L'Ecole de Desin (Cinmé)" and "65 Liv. Pl. 389" appears at the top, indicating it may be part of a series or publication. The image is mounted on a gray paper backing.

This is a black and white image of an illustration. It depicts a solitary figure sitting on a step. The person's body language indicates a state of distress or despondency, as their head rests in their right hand while the left hand appears to be holding some object or just resting on their lap. They are garbed in what appears to be traditional or historical clothing which includes a headscarf or hood of some sort, and a full-length garment that drapes over the body.

At the top of the image, some text reads "L'Ecole de Design (Cours)" and to the right, there seems to be a reference or catalog number "65. Ex. Pl. 329." At the bottom left, additional text indicates the source or credit "Imp. Aquarelle Brevette S.G.D.G. par A. Pilinski." Additionally, at the bottom right, there's the word "Indigence" which could imply the theme or title of the illustration, along with a date "1865" and a signature or initials that look like "A. Bida" or similar.

The illustration is mounted on a larger sheet of paper or card, offering a contrasting background to the actual illustration. The larger sheet appears slightly aged and has some marks and spotting indicative of paper of some age or that has been handled.

Overall Impression:

The image is a black and white etching or drawing. It depicts an elderly woman in a state of apparent poverty and contemplation. The style is detailed, realistic, and evocative of a somber mood.

Description:

  • Subject: The primary subject is an elderly woman. She's seated, possibly on a stone or rough surface, and appears frail. Her attire suggests poverty: she wears a long skirt, a shawl or cloak, and a head covering.
  • Pose and Expression: The woman is hunched over, resting her chin on her hand, in a thoughtful or sorrowful pose. Her face is lined, indicating age and perhaps hardship. The pose and the overall expression convey a sense of loneliness and indigence.
  • Surroundings: The background is minimal. There's a suggestion of a wall or architectural detail behind her, with a small rectangular form that may be a sign or a plaque. The ground is indicated by lines that suggest a cobblestone or paved surface.
  • Details: She holds an object in her hands, possibly a small container. The artist has meticulously captured the details of her clothing and features.
  • Text and Annotations:
    • The top left says "L'ecole de Dessin (6ème année)", suggesting that this may be a study or work made in a drawing school.
    • The top right says "65 Liv. M. 389".
    • The lower right says "h. Bellangè 1859".
    • The bottom says "Indigence".

Artistic Style and Tone:

Here is a description of the image:

The image is a black and white drawing or print depicting an elderly, impoverished woman sitting outside. The artwork is titled "Indigence" at the bottom, and the artist is credited as H. Bellangé, with the date 1859. The text "L'ecole de Dessin (Cannié)" and "65 Liv M. 389" also appears at the top.

The woman is wearing a headscarf or bonnet and is heavily draped in clothing, which suggests a cold environment or a desire to conceal her appearance. She is seated with a hunched posture and her hand supporting her chin, indicating weariness or contemplation. In her hands, she holds a small container, possibly a begging cup, suggesting her destitute condition.

The background is sparse, featuring what appears to be a simple architectural structure or wall with a sign or plaque on it. The ground is indicated by rough lines, suggesting a paved surface. The overall style is detailed and expressive, capturing the emotional weight of the woman's situation. The use of hatching and cross-hatching creates depth and texture, adding to the realistic depiction of poverty.
