Front view of a group of figures. The drawing is in landscape format. It is framed in ink. Inscriptions appear on the reverse.
Three women and a man accompany three boys and a little girl. One behind the other, they hold hands. Some of them point their index fingers to the right of the drawing. The toddler, in a blue dress, wears a bracelet on his wrist, decorated with several bells. This is an apotropaic object, intended to ward off bad luck. The little girl is holding a terracotta toy in the shape of a rooster, inspired by an object in the Musée Départemental Arles Antique.
The drawing was produced for the Arles exhibition in 2006.
