Portrait of a Man 

This charcoal and watercolor drawing by Hercules Brabazon Brabazon, a prolific Irish artist who lived from 1821 to 1906, depicts a close-up portrait of a man with a white turban. The subject's face is obscured by the shadows cast by the turban, and the overall style of the work is loose and expressive, indicative of Brabazon's interest in capturing fleeting moments and the beauty of everyday life. The artist's expressive brushstrokes create a sense of movement and energy, while the muted colors and subtle shading contribute to the work's intimate and melancholic atmosphere.
