This drawing depicts five profiles of faces viewed from the side. The facial features are classical and idealized, with prominent noses, lips, and sharp chins. The individuals have different styles of hair, ranging from curly to wavy, some tied back, all with fine detail. The image is on a beige paper background with visible aging or foxing marks.
