"Portrait of P. Leist" is a graphite drawing by Carl Hoff, a German artist born in 1807. The drawing, which is housed in the Städel Museum, depicts a man in profile, wearing a tall hat, likely a top hat, a popular fashion statement in the 19th century. The artist's use of graphite creates a sense of realism and depth in the portrait, capturing the details of the subject's features and clothing. The drawing exemplifies Hoff's talent for capturing the essence of his subjects through simple yet effective means.
