Man at a Doorway

James Goodwyn Clonney

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a drawing of a man from his waist up. He is positioned leaning in from the right edge, with his head turned towards the viewer. The man has a broad smile, large eyes, short curly hair, and is wearing a dark suit over a light-colored shirt with a visible lapel. His right arm is resting on the edge of the frame. The background is plain and off-white, emphasizing the man as the main focal point.
