This drawing shows a man in fancy robes sitting at a desk. Behind him are shelves packed with books, and a coat of arms hangs on the wall. His face looks thoughtful, and he holds a quill in his hand, as if writing or reading. The banner at the top says "Parker Morse Hooper" and below it reads "His Book," suggesting this is a bookplate—something added to the inside cover of a book to mark ownership. Check out The Cleveland Museum of Art to see more of this artist’s work.
