Man Seated in a Rowboat (from Sketchbook)

Francis William Edmonds

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white sketch of a man sitting in a rowboat. The man is wearing a wide-brimmed hat, a long-sleeved shirt with suspenders, and boots. His right leg is crossed over his left, with his right foot dangling. The rowboat has a curved stern and ribs visible inside. The sketch is on a white background with a black border around the edges, and the image appears to be a page from a sketchbook. The drawing style is simple and rough.
