A sketch I commissioned from Frau Barr (Yes, she does commissions -at reasonable rates, too!)

A Halfhorse version of the 'Leiermann' (Hurdy-gurdy man) from Schubert's "Die Winterreise":

'Barfuss auf dem Eise
Schwankt ihr hin und her,
Und sein kleiner Teller
Bleibt ihm immer leer..."

("Barefoot on the ice,
He staggers to and fro,
And his little plate
Is always empty....")

- "Der Leiermann"
