Black and white sketch of a man with shoulder-length hair wearing a dark suit sitting at a desk with papers. The man is sitting on the right side, looking down and to the left. He has a receding hairline and hair that comes to a point at the nape of his neck. His facial features include a prominent nose, thin lips, and deep-set eyes. His right arm is bent at the elbow, with his hand out of view. The desk has several pieces of paper on it. In the background, there is a mantle with decorative items on it, including what appears to be a clock. The artwork is signed in the bottom-right corner. Ernest Renan by Anders Zorn.
