About this work

This sketch shows a person’s head and shoulders from the side. The lines are loose and quick, almost like a first try—no details in the face, just simple shapes for eyes and mouth. One hand rests near the chin, fingers slightly curled. The artist left a small note in the corner: *"Desen copie"* (which means "copy drawing" in Romanian). It looks like a practice piece, maybe for a bigger portrait. Next, check out the museum: Museum of Ethnography to see more works like this.
