Sketch of a Man with Upraised Arm and Sketch of a Helmet (verso)

Édouard Detaille

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a piece of aged paper with a light brown color and darker brown spots. The paper has a rough, torn edge on the right side and what appears to be tape on the left edge. There are several small sketches and markings on the paper. In the top center, a small sketch of a helmet can be seen. Below and to the left of the helmet, a sketch of a man with his arm raised is present. The man appears to be wearing clothing and has his right arm raised above his head. A circular stamp is located in the bottom-right corner of the paper, although the text within it is not legible. Additionally, there are some handwritten numbers and letters on the paper, including what appears to be "PC#" in the top-right corner and some cursive writing near the center. The background of the image is white, suggesting that the paper is being displayed against a plain backdrop.
