Nude male model with beard and aging body, seated squarely in a chair draped with dark fabric richly worked with graphite. His right arm is extended and resting on a stool also under the dark fabric. A frontal view of the man, with his legs spread wide. This man is very naked. There is an unknown narrative here. On his face is a somewhat stern expression of self confidence. Compositionally, at the right edge of the paper, there is a long vertical fold in the cloth material hanging in the background. The vertical line is in visual play with the strong diagonal line of the dark fabric on the chair. On BFK Rives paper.
