The Prodigal Son

Honoré Daumier,

The image shows a lightly sketched drawing of a person, with a partial view of the body. The figure is in a posture that suggests leaning forward or embracing something, with the head slightly bowed. The facial features are minimal and abstract, and the hair is depicted simply. Flowing lines around the figure suggest clothing, but no detailed attire is shown. The background is a plain, textured paper surface with pencil marks and the word "Regina" written upside down on the right side. The composition is simplistic and abstract, with no other elements in the surrounding area.
