Benjamin Robert Haydon

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a sketch of a person's upper body as seen from the side. The individual's head is slightly turned forward and their body is angled to the left. Facial features are softly drawn, with a hint of details. The person has a bun hairstyle with a headband or band across the top of the head. They are wearing a draped garment that crosses at the front of the chest. No accessories are visible. The background is a plain, blank paper surface against which the sketch is drawn in faint pencil lines.
