This drawing, likely created in 1822, depicts a seated elderly man with his hand on his face, rendered in red chalk by Dutch artist Abraham Johannes Ruytenschildt. Ruytenschildt, known for his portraits and historical paintings, captures a moment of contemplation or sadness in this intimate study. The loose strokes of the chalk emphasize the figure's posture, highlighting the figure's weary demeanor. The delicate use of red chalk and the simplicity of the composition create a sense of quiet introspection, characteristic of Ruytenschildt's style.
