About this work

George Chinnery drew two men smoking hookahs in 1836. It’s a quick sketch, not a finished painting. The men wear beards and turbans. The drawing shows one man holding a hookah in his left hand. The other figures include a man near an entrance and a hand reaching out. It’s done in a loose, Romantic style. Look up the artist George Chinnery next.
