About this work

This black-and-white sketch shows a man sitting in a chair, holding a walking stick. Behind him, two empty picture frames hang on a plain wall. The room looks quiet and dim, with a rug on the floor and a small table nearby. The artist focused on the man’s thoughtful pose and the empty frames, which stand out as a detail. This sketch was made in 1904 by Henry Wolf. Check out Henry Wolf (American, 1852–1916) for more of his work.
