Two Heads is a 1888 graphite by Paul Cezanne, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This sketch shows two faces drawn in quick, loose lines. The heads tilt toward each other, but the artist left out details like eyes or mouths. The paper is light beige, and the pencil strokes look rough and uneven. Notice how the artist didn’t finish the faces—just rough shapes and curves. This was likely a fast study, not a polished work. If you like this style, look up Impressionism next.
Paul Cézanne was born on January 19, 1839, in Aix-en-Provence, the son of a hatter turned wealthy banker.
