About this work

This sketch shows a man with round glasses and a mustache, holding a pipe in his right hand. His collar is high, and he wears a bow tie with tiny white dots. The paper is light beige, and the lines are all drawn in pencil, with no color. The artist used thin, careful strokes to build up the face and clothes. The paper has a few faint marks where the pencil pressed harder. Look up cross-hatching to see how artists create shading with lines.
