Seated Boy

Sir Thomas Lawrence

National Gallery of Art

This is a portrait sketch showing the upper body of a young child. The child is sitting with one knee raised and their arms resting casually on it. They have short, dark hair that is parted to the side. Their facial features are soft with a gentle expression and subtle blush on the cheeks. The child is dressed in a light-colored, high-collared garment with soft, fluffy detailing around the neck. The background is a simple, slightly textured surface. No objects or jewelry are visible in the image.
