Martyrs is a 1895 ink by Jean Danguy, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This sketch shows two people sitting close together, their heads turned slightly away. One wears a hat with a wide brim, while the other has short, dark hair. The lines are loose and quick, like a hurried drawing. The paper looks rough, and the marks are uneven—almost like a sketch made fast. The artist signed it in the corner. Next, look up lithography to see how this print was made.
