"Gypsy with Tambourine" is a charcoal drawing by French artist Alexandre Antigna, born in 1817. The work depicts a seated young woman, possibly a Romani woman, with long dark hair and wearing a headscarf. The drawing features a subtle use of shading and highlights, suggesting a sense of depth and volume to the subject. The work likely reflects a common theme in 19th-century art: the romanticized portrayal of marginalized groups, particularly those associated with a nomadic lifestyle.
