Frontal view of a mother and child. The drawing is in portrait format. It is framed in ink. Inscriptions and traces of watercolor are visible in the margins.
Seated at the window of a domus, a mother is breastfeeding her child on her lap.
Dishes filled with victuals lie at her feet.
The drawing was inspired by the Casa della Farnesina fresco of a nymph suckling Dionysus.
