Head of a Man

Domenico Campagnola

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts a drawing of a bearded man's head and shoulders in a slight left turn. The man has a detailed face with a prominent beard, curly hair, deep-set eyes, and a contemplative expression. He has a defined nose and a full head of hair framing his face. The man is wearing draped fabric around his shoulders or possibly a hood. The background is plain and neutral. The drawing style includes bold and fine lines, as well as shading for depth and texture.
