About this work

This sketch shows a man leaning over a table, deep in thought. He’s holding a small object—maybe a top or a tool—between his fingers, with a pencil in his other hand. The lines are loose and quick, like he was drawing fast. The artist signed it in the corner, and the date looks like 1911. The whole thing feels rough and sketchy, like a quick study. If you like this style, check out etching, drypoint, aquatint next.
