About this work

This sketch shows a man with a thick beard and mustache, turned slightly away. His hair is curly, and he wears a high-collared shirt with a scarf draped loosely over his shoulders. The lines are quick and sketchy, like the artist worked fast. The paper has a textured look, typical of older prints. The signature in the corner says "Loys Delteil" and the year "1898." Next, check out the technique: etching, drypoint.
