Young Man with Cane

Daniel Nikolaus Chodowiecki

National Gallery of Art

The illustration depicts a man standing upright in profile, facing slightly to the right. He has a pointed nose, a sharp chin, and wears a tri-cornered hat. His attire includes a long coat, knee-length breeches, knee-high stockings, and a long cravat. He is holding a walking cane in his right hand. The background shows a simple, textured landscape with sparse foliage around his feet.
