Study of Ezekiel for "Frieze of Prophets"

John Singer Sargent

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a sketch of a standing person with flowing garments covering their body. The person's face is partially hidden by fabric or a hood, with the features not clearly defined. The clothing is large and flowing, creating a sense of movement and depth with light and shadow. There are no visible accessories or objects, and the background is plain.
