v2.c8.s9.39

To the right of this scene is another, which is reproduced in both Plates XXII and XXIII. It represents a hermit sitting on the steps in front of a door, and a lady offering him something on a tray. In front of the hermit are a number of figures with outstretched hands, apparently representing beggars. The outlines of these figures have not been finished, so some of them look very crude.
