Twee vrouwen, gekleed in lompen, de linker met een lepel in de hand en een mof onder de arm, de rechter met een bedelnap en een stok in de handen en een rozenkrans om de pols. Deze prent is onderdeel van een serie van 25 prenten met bedelaars en zwervers, zoals Callot die waarschijnlijk in Italië heeft gezien.

Nel frattempo, nella vita di Jacques Callot
Tutta la vita1611–1621 · Luogo di lavoro
Florence
1614–1621
At the court of Cosimo II de’ Medici
Under Parigi’s direction Callot works at the court of the Grand Duke of Tuscany Cosimo II de’ Medici in the Uffizi, designing festivals and theatrical performances — later these give him themes for his series of grotesque prints; during his Florentine years he becomes an independent master and often works for the Medici.
1621
Returns to Nancy after the death of Cosimo II
After the death of Grand Duke Cosimo II de’ Medici, Callot responds to Duke Charles IV of Lorraine’s wish to see him at his court and returns to Lorraine, where he is received with flattering honours; staying in Nancy, he sends his prints all over Europe, and Rembrandt becomes a keen collector of them.
