DescriptionA man walks on crutches in profile, though he turns his head towards the viewer. He is draped in a rough cloak, and his hat has a hole through which tufts of his hair emerge. His shoes look to be tied on with string and stuffed with hay.This record has been reviewed by University Galleries staff but may be incomplete or contain errors.
