Portrait 

Thomas Eakins, known for his realistic approach to portraiture, created this small watercolor study "Portrait". The piece features a close-up view of a man's head, his face obscured by shadow and a dark, unidentifiable hat. The use of watercolor gives the work a sense of immediacy and sketchiness, highlighting Eakins' skill in capturing the essence of a subject with minimal detail. The subject's identity is unknown, adding to the enigmatic quality of this intriguing study.
