This sketch shows a young man in a dark coat, sitting with one arm resting on a chair. His hair is neatly combed, and he looks straight ahead with a serious expression. The background is plain, with only the faint outline of a wall and some loose lines. The artist signed it in the corner, marking it as a work from 1849. The sketch feels quick and loose, like it was drawn fast but still captures the person’s face well. Want to see more by the artist? Check out Gustave Edward Barry (French).
