Auguste Ottin

Französische Grafik 1830–1844, 1833

The image is a pencil sketch of a man seated and shown from the waist up. He is leaning back, with his left arm resting on the chair's arm. The man's facial features are detailed, with a strong jawline, pronounced cheekbones, and deeply set eyes. His hair is styled with a center part. He wears a coat over what looks like a high-collared shirt or a scarf. The background is plain, focusing on the subject, with the artist's signature and the date "1839" in the lower right corner.
