This graphite drawing by German artist Victor Müller, born in 1830, depicts the profile of a man with a pointed beard, facing left. The artwork, currently housed in the Städel Museum, showcases Müller's skill in capturing the likeness of his subject through precise lines and a minimalist approach. The piece is a compelling example of 19th-century portraiture and offers a glimpse into the artist's meticulous drawing style.
