This is a pencil and chalk drawing from 1845. It’s a study for a boy with one finger in his mouth and a hat in his left hand. Redgrave used black chalk for shadows and white chalk for light to shape the figure. This drawing leads to his painting Sunday Morning: Walk from Church at the same museum. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum.
