Painting of a group of ragged beggars in blankets against a whitewashed wall, with a seated man in a red cap and a woman in black in front.

The Beggars of Burgos, Oil Painting After Gustave Doré

A row of ragged figures wrapped in heavy patterned blankets stands and sits against a whitewashed wall with brick patches. A woman in black and a seated man in a red cap occupy the foreground, while a figure lies at the lower right. The muted, earthy palette and crowded composition convey hardship.
