This is a study sheet or preparatory drawing by French artist Carle van Loo. It is likely a preparatory sketch for a larger composition. The sheet features several studies including a figure of Winter, a bearded man, and two nymphs holding a water jug. It is also likely a preparatory sketch for a larger composition, which may be a painting or a sculpture. Such preliminary sketches were common practice for artists during the 18th century to aid in the composition of a larger work. The drawing is created in black chalk on paper and is now housed in the Städel Museum.
