Edward Hopper

(Two Studies:Two Men Fighting with Hockey Stick and Bearded Man's Head)
1899–1906

A sketch on a beige paper featuring a central figure of a bearded man in medieval attire holding a spear with a flag. The man is in a dynamic pose, as if caught mid-movement, with a detailed rendering of his draped clothing and muscular legs. To the right, there is a separate, smaller sketch of a man's head with a beard, possibly a study for the main figure. The background is blank, emphasizing the sketches.
