Sir Laurence Binyon is a 1921 by Francis Dodd, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This is a black-and-white portrait of a man in a suit and tie. His hair is wavy and combed back, and he has a serious expression. The drawing is simple but shows the shape of his face and clothes clearly, with some shading for depth. The artist used light pencil strokes to suggest texture, like the folds in his collar. The background is plain, keeping all focus on the man’s face. Next, check out *The Cleveland Museum of Art* to see more works like this.
