Oriental debout tenant un bâton

Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, 1753/1762

The image is a sketch of a person standing upright. The person has a long beard and is wearing a rounded hat and draped clothing that flows down to their feet. Their facial features are not distinctly drawn, but the outline suggests elongated features beneath the hat. The clothing is loose, with a shawl or cloak draped over the shoulders and long sleeves. The figure holds a small stick or similar object in one hand. There is no detailed background.
