Edward Hopper

(Sketches of Firemen, Figures, and Men in Hats)
1899–1906

A sketch on tan paper featuring a collection of quick ink drawings. The central figure is a person in a long coat and a wide-brimmed hat, holding what appears to be a cane. Surrounding this figure are various sketched faces and heads, some with hats, capturing different expressions and angles. The style is loose and expressive, suggesting the sketches may have been done in a rapid, observational manner.
