Edward Hopper

(Sketch after Millet's Man with a Hoe)
1900–1907

A sketch of a man leaning forward on a shovel, with a weary or contemplative expression. The background is lightly detailed, suggesting an outdoor setting. The man's clothing appears to be that of a laborer, and the style of the drawing suggests it may be from an earlier historical period.
