This pencil drawing, created by English artist George Dance, depicts the profile of a man. The artist, known for his architectural and portrait work, skillfully uses light and shadow to render the subject's features with a sense of realism. The work is a striking example of 18th-century portraiture, showcasing the meticulous detail and nuanced shading characteristic of the period. The artwork, now housed at the Art Institute of Chicago, provides a glimpse into the life and style of an individual from a bygone era.
