Head of a Youth and a Man with a Moustache

Italienische Grafik 1824–1911, c. 1895/1896

The image depicts the head of a person with their eyes closed, facing slightly downward. The facial features include a composed expression with soft shading suggesting light falling on the face. The hair is dark, straight, and slightly tousled, framing the face. Pencil sketch textures create a soft background ambiance. The shoulders of the person blend into the background sketch lines. The background is an unfinished, light sketch without specific objects or scenery.
