Head of a Turbaned Man is a 1768 ink by Jean-Baptiste Le Prince, a Romanticism work, depicting Turban, held at National Gallery of Art.
This is a black-and-white drawing of a man wearing a large, folded turban. His face is wrinkled, with a thick beard and sharp eyes. The lines are loose and sketchy, almost like a quick sketch. The artist used a technique that mixes sharp lines with soft shading. The paper looks old and textured, like it’s been around for a while. Next, look up etching to see how artists like this made prints.
