This drawing depicts the head of a baby, rendered in a simple yet expressive style. The baby's face is turned to the left, with their eyes cast downward. The artist has used bold lines and gentle shading to capture the contours of the baby's features. The drawing is executed in a loose, sketchy manner, with visible lines and subtle texture. The overall effect is one of quiet contemplation, as if the artist has frozen a moment in time. To learn more about the artist's technique, look up cross-hatching.
