This sketch shows a man in a long black coat and white shirt, mid-step as if walking. His face is round, with a big nose and a slight frown. One hand hangs loose, while the other rests on his hip, and his pants are tucked into tall boots. The title below hints he’s playing a character named Joseph Prudhomme. The text at the top calls it part of a series about modern artists. Next, check out how this artist used lithography.
