Edward Hopper

(Study of a Man with Hand in Pocket in Profile)
1899–1906

A sketch of a man in a suit with his head bowed down, appearing contemplative or somber. The drawing is monochromatic, using shades of black and gray, and is set against a plain, lightly stained background. The figure is detailed from the waist up, with the lower half of the body loosely outlined, suggesting an unfinished work.
