Man in a Tall Hat

Imitator of Honoré Daumier

National Gallery of Art

The sculpture depicts a male figure with distinct facial features and a unique expression. The figure wears a tall top hat, and the sculpture appears to be made of a dark material, perhaps bronze, with a textured and slightly reflective surface. It is mounted on a wooden base, and is a small bust focusing on the head, hat, and upper torso up to the shoulders.
