Head of a Woman 1767

Louis Marin Bonnet's 1767 graphite drawing, "Head of a Woman," depicts the head and shoulders of a young woman, her head slightly tilted downward. The detailed, expressive use of hatching and cross-hatching to create the woman's hair and face is a testament to Bonnet's artistic skill and the influence of his Neoclassical style. The drawing is held in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.
