About this work

This is a black-and-white sketch of a man in profile, facing left. His hair is short and neatly combed, and he wears a high-collared jacket with a cravat tied loosely at his neck. The lines are simple, focusing on his strong jaw and serious expression. The image is labeled "Prince Hoare," and it was made using a printing method that lets artists draw directly onto stone. This was a new way to make many copies of the same image at once. Check out how this was made with technique: lithography.
