Studies for a Boatman

Otto Greiner

National Gallery of Art

The drawing shows two male figures in a classical style. The figure on the left has a beard and curly hair, with detailed facial features, holding an object in one hand and an open palm in the other. The figure on the right is less detailed, with a mustache, grasping a pole across his chest. Both figures are muscular and unclothed. The background is a plain surface with sketched hands.
