Barnaby Rudge
1899

A vintage ink drawing on aged paper depicting a character named Barnaby Rudge, walking with a staff in hand and a raven perched on his head. The character is shown in profile, wearing a long coat and a hat with feathers, and carrying a basket on his back. The background is minimal, with a suggestion of clouds in the sky and some grass and flowers at his feet. The name "Barnaby Rudge" is inscribed at the bottom.
