(Study of a Boy in Athletic Jersey)

A sketch on aged paper depicting a confident male figure standing with his hands on his hips. The character is wearing a costume with a prominent letter "P" on the chest, suggesting a superhero or sports uniform theme. The drawing style is loose and expressive with visible pen strokes, and there is a small scribble or signature at the bottom right.
