Head of a Man (Tete d'homme)

Alphonse Legros

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts a portrait of an individual's head and neck. The person is shown in profile, with their head turned to the right and eyes looking down. The individual has wavy, shoulder-length hair, a pronounced nose, and detailed eyes. The drawing ends just below the neck, omitting the shoulders and chest. The background is plain and light beige in color, with the artist's signature, "A. Legros," visible in the bottom right corner.
