A vertically oriented ink sketch on a spiral-bound cream page depicts a man in profile, facing left. Minimal, gestural black lines define his large ear, glasses, and tall, brimmed hat. To our left, a separate fragment of a drawing shows a finger. Rendered from the neck up with spare strokes, the figure is set against a blank background, emphasizing the quick, observational nature of the composition.
