Head of a Man

Charles-Paul-Jean-Baptiste de Bourgevin Vialart de Saint-Morys, after Sandro Botticelli

National Gallery of Art

The image shows an illustration of a person's face, captured in a forward-facing position with their head slightly turned to the left. The illustration includes the head, a small portion of the neck, and shoulders. The person has deep-set eyes, a straight nose, slightly parted lips, and wavy or curly hair partially covered by a cloth or head covering. The artwork is in a sepia wash with cross-hatching lines for light and shadow. There are no jewelry or objects in the image, and the background is a plain, uniform color.
