Pencil study of a man's head in profile

A pencil study in soft graphite shows a man's head in strict left profile, with voluminous curly hair and a faint mustache against a pale grey ground. Shading is built from fine, feathery hatching that models the cheek, nose and jaw, while the hair dissolves into loose, looping strokes.
