King Canute

William Blake, c. 1819/1820

The image shows a pencil sketch of a man's upper torso and head. He has distinct facial features with eyebrows, a mustache, and a curly beard. His hair is styled and merges into an elaborate crown atop his head. The crown is detailed and extends upwards. The man wears a simple cloak over his shoulders. The background is plain, and the paper shows signs of aging.
