Four Heads from the Raphael Cartoons at Hampton Court

William Hogarth, ca. 1729

The image shows an etching of four men, each depicted from the shoulders up in various poses. The man on the left has a beard and short hair, looking to the right. The second man from the left has curly hair and faces right with a neutral expression. The third man has longer curly hair and a beard, looking directly at the viewer with his face partially in shadow. The man on the right has a full beard and wears a head wrap, facing left with eyes nearly closed. The background is plain, emphasizing the detailed features and expressions of the four men.
