Profile of Man
Description
Composition in black and white. Predominance of shaded and rapid lines. Composition representing man's head occupying almost the entire support area, against a light background. The figure is nearly edge-on to the left, your face is angular and the whole face is revealed by the light and dark contrast. The hair suggest being disheveled, with straight lines that define tuft horizontally. It has a broad forehead, deep-set eyes, aquiline nose, lips and square jaw closed with slight prominence. His on the left side is almost entirely in the shade and quick strokes define the neck is short and the beginning of the chest.
