This drawing shows a man in a fancy robe. He stands with other men in a long line. The men all wear matching hats and carry wooden staffs. These drawings used ink and paper. The artist filled the page with fine lines to show folds in the robes. That makes the robes look real and heavy. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
