A black and white sketch depicting an elderly man sitting on a chair in the doorway of a cluttered workshop or garage filled with various tools, equipment, and objects such as birdcages, a lantern, and a boxing punching bag. The man is wearing a cap, glasses, overalls, and a light shirt, and has a relaxed posture with his hands on his thighs. The environment suggests a space rich with history and stories, possibly a lifetime of collected items and memories.
