A Gentleman, a Young Woman, and a Dog, early 16th century, Brush and gray and brown ink, heightened with white, on light brown paper., 7 3/16 x 6 1/2 in. (18.3 x 16.5 cm), Drawings, Michele da Verona (Italian, Verona ca. 1470–Verona 1536/1544) (?), The meaning of the scene is mysterious, and its interpretation is made more difficult by damage at the point where the hands of the man and woman meet to exchange an object. She is apparently a gardener—the long tool she holds was used for digging up bulbs—but her relationship to the gentleman is unclear
