Edward Hopper

(Study of William V. Graff)
1915–1918

A charcoal sketch of a man seated and leaning forward, resting his elbows on a surface with his hands clasped together. He appears contemplative or focused, with his gaze directed downward. The drawing is detailed, capturing the folds of his suit and the expression on his face, and is presented on aged, yellowed paper with rough edges.
