About this work

A man lounges in a deep chair with a soft throw over one arm. His face is calm, almost blurred. The light hits his forehead, leaving the rest shadowed. One hand rests on his chest. Hassam often drew quiet moments like this. He made many lithographs in the 1910s. This one feels personal—just a private scene, no big story. If you like this, check out more by Hassam, Childe.
