This sketch shows two men facing each other, their heads close together. One has a bald head and a slight smile, while the other wears a mustache and looks downward. Their hands rest on each other’s shoulders, and the lines are loose and quick, like a quick sketch. The paper has a textured look, and the artist signed it in the corner. The drawing feels raw and unfinished, more like a study than a polished work. Check out the artist Corinth, Lovis for more sketches like this.
