This sketch shows a man in a suit, sitting down with one hand resting on his knee. His coat is buttoned up, and his hair is neatly combed. The artist used quick, loose lines to capture his face and clothing, leaving some areas slightly blurred. The drawing feels rushed, almost like a quick study. The crayon strokes vary in thickness, giving the paper texture a rough, sketchy look. If you like this style, try looking up Lovis Corinth.
