"Portrait of Vollard, Seated" is a charcoal drawing created by the French artist Jean-Louis Forain circa 1910. The drawing depicts Ambroise Vollard, a prominent art dealer and collector, in a seated pose, his head slightly bent down. Forain's signature style is evident in the loose and expressive lines, capturing a sense of movement and the sitter's personality. The drawing, currently housed at The Art Institute of Chicago, is a remarkable example of Forain's mastery of the medium, showcasing his ability to convey depth and emotion through simple lines and shading.
