Portrait of Louis M. Eilshemius

A detailed sketch of a man's face, possibly a self-portrait, with expressive lines and shading. The man has a full beard and mustache, and his hair is swept back. There are annotations and a signature at the bottom, along with a date that reads "March 4, 1937." The paper shows signs of age with some discoloration and wear around the edges.
