To Each His Own is a 1892 ink by Jean-Louis Forain, a Impressionism work, depicting Drinking, held at National Gallery of Art.
You see a simple drawing with bold lines and shading. It's done with black ink on paper. The artist used simple techniques to create depth, which is interesting because it shows how much can be done with so little - Forain likely used this simplicity to focus on the scene itself. To learn more about this style, look up the technique: cross-hatching.
Jean-Louis Forain (French pronunciation: ; 23 October 1852 – 11 July 1931) was a French Impressionist painter and printmaker, working in media including oils, watercolour, pastel, etching and lithograph.
