About this work
A vagrant, leaning on his walking stick and a knee crutch, walks past a village located on a river. The print is part of a series of twenty-six prints of beggars and vagrants. Some figures in this series are also designated as 'kreupele', which in the 17th century was a generic term for people with physical disabilities.
