Mein Lieb, or, My Love.

A peasant woman has picked up her son, and is kissing his cheek. He is perhaps five of ssix years old. They wear cheap clothing, but warm enough for a North Italian Winter. There are sketched hints of trees and hills in the background.

This engraving by Richard Bong was based on the original painting by the Italian painter Arnaldo Ferraguti.
