This sketch shows two bare-chested men standing close together. One is taller, wearing a hat and a loose shirt, while the other is shorter, shirtless. Their faces are drawn with simple lines, and the background is just a few quick strokes—like a field or dirt. The artist used a single ink color, making the lines look almost like a quick sketch. The way the figures stand suggests a quiet moment, but their expressions are hard to read. Next, check out Candido Portinari to see more of his work.
