Vincenzio Piombi

Jean-Baptiste Joseph Wicar

National Gallery of Art

The pencil sketch depicts a man from the chest up. The man is turned slightly to his left and gazes into the distance. He has finely detailed facial features, including prominent eyebrows and a defined nose, with his hair styled back, appearing wavy and drawn in fine lines. The man is wearing a high-collared garment with clear outlines of the lapels and buttons. There is no visible jewelry or objects held by the man. In the background, there are faint lines of text written at the top right corner.
