Dalecarlian Peasant (Lavards Anders)

Anders Leonard Zorn

National Gallery of Art

The image is a portrait drawing of a person sitting. The person is facing forward with a direct gaze. They have a long face with sharp facial features, including prominent cheekbones and deep-set eyes. The hair is long and light-colored, tucked under a brimmed hat that appears fuzzy. The clothing consists of a dark vest over a lighter shirt with visible lines suggesting fabric folds or texture. The background has a patterned, cross-hatched texture, while the name "LAVRIDS ANDERS" is inscribed at the top, and there is a signature at the bottom. There are no visible jewelry or objects being held by the person.
