1898
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
London Types: Bus Driver is a 1898 by William Nicholson, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This is a flat, bold drawing of a man in a black coat and hat, sitting with his legs crossed. His face is simple but expressive, with red accents on his cheeks and lips. His hands are large, one gripping a cane, the other resting on his knee. The style is very direct—no soft edges or shadows, just strong black lines on a light background. It looks like it’s meant to show a quick, everyday moment. Next, check out The Cleveland Museum of Art to see more works like this.
