RARE COLLECTABLE FRAMED VINTAGE INK ETCHING - MIDDLE EASTERN DEPICTION - SIGNED IN PENCIL

A RARE VINTAGE INK ETCHING WHICH COULD POSSIBLY BE OLDER, DEPICTING A MAN AND WOMAN CLOTHED IN TRADITIONAL MIDDLE EASTERN PERIOD CLOTHING WHICH PORTRAYS THE IMAGE AS IN A BIBLICAL AGE.   A MAN IS SEATED ON A MULE WHICH APPEARS TOO SMALL TO BE USED AS TRANSPORT WHILE BEHIND HIM A WOMAN WALKS ALONG CARRYING A BASKET OF VEGETABLES UPON HER HEAD.  BETWEEN THEM IN THE DISTANCE IS A FIELD AND A CLASSICAL MIDDLE EASTERN VILLAGE OF THE PERIOD.   THE DEPICTION IS ALMOST MEANT TO CONVEY AN ELEMENT OF HUMOR IN THE PORTRYAL
