This sketch shows a man’s face in profile, wearing a tall, pointed hat. His beard is thick, and the lines on his face are drawn with quick, loose strokes. The paper is light, almost yellow, and the pencil marks vary in darkness. The signature reads Flora-Karavia Thaleia and the date 1905, hinting this was done over a century ago. The hat style suggests a time or place where such headwear was common. Look up Flora-Karavia Thaleia to see more of her work.
