Edward Hopper

(Study of a Man Leaning on Bicycle)
1895–1899

Pencil sketch of a man in profile view walking with a cane, drawn on lined notebook paper. The man is wearing a jacket and pants, and his head is slightly bowed. The drawing is detailed enough to show the folds in the clothing and the grip on the cane, but the man's features are not detailed. The paper appears aged with a slight yellow tint.
