Forceful long black lines describe the contours of a man’s head in profile facing rightward. Strokes slanting downward from upper left to lower right depict his close-cropped hair, full beard and mustache. Short darker lines show bushy eyebrows over his half squinting eyes, and a lighter space shows full cheeks. Parts of the drawing show a looseness, with initial contour lines left in next to more finished lines above the head and in front of the nose. The background is a pale gray tone.
