Edward Hopper

(Two Studies: Man's Bust in Profile and Man's Head)
1899–1906

A sketch on aged paper featuring a detailed profile of a man looking downward to the left, with a smaller, less detailed face sketched above and to the left of the main portrait. The drawing is executed in charcoal or pencil, with visible strokes and shading, and there are some smudges and marks around the drawing, suggesting an artist's work in progress.
