Eyes expressing character, after Lavater, c. 1794
A sheet of reddish-brown chalk studies shows rows of eyes and brows in varied expressions, with small numerals beside each group. The brows arch, lower, and wrinkle around the lids, shifting from calm to strained, set on pale, slightly stained paper.
