A Standing Man with Cloak and Gloves

Bernardo Strozzi

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a sketch of a person with three-quarters of the body visible. The figure is slightly turned to the side, with the head facing the viewer. The facial features are minimally detailed, and the hair is styled simply. The clothing is indicated by flowing lines, possibly a robe or long garment. The person's arms are sketched in front of them. There is no jewelry or objects. The background is plain, and the sketch is done in a medium resembling red chalk or pastel on light-colored paper.
