Description

A man in a flat cap and dark overcoat leans forward towards a small child in a knitted cap, white top, belted shorts and dark shoes. The child reaches out with one arm, and both stand on a dirt ground in front of a building with lattice shutters and a pale wall. A flowerpot stands at the left edge.
