This drawing shows a man dressed as Falstaff, a character from a play. He's wearing a big hat and a fancy costume. The drawing is detailed and realistic, which makes it interesting because it gives us a glimpse of what theater costumes looked like back then. To learn more about the style of drawings like this, look at the technique: cross-hatching.
A drawing from 1802 portrays Stephen Kemble in the role of Falstaff during a performance of *The Merry Wives of Windsor*.
