Standing Man 

"Standing Man" is a pen and ink drawing on paper by the French artist Paul Gavarni, known for his satirical portrayals of Parisian life. This artwork is a classic example of Gavarni's style, showcasing his ability to capture the essence of a character with minimal detail. The figure is depicted standing with his arms crossed, seemingly lost in thought. Gavarni’s masterful use of line and shadow creates a sense of depth and emotion, making this simple portrait a compelling study of human nature.
