About the Item

Grimace is a beautiful brown and black China ink drawing and watercolor on wire rod paper, made by an anonymous artist of the late 18th century. A precious old master's original drawing, representing a male portrait in profile with accentuated facial features, emphasized also by his strong questioning expression of dismay. The drawing shows a dense and skillful hatching with interweaving lines. In good conditions, except for a usual yellowing of the paper and some sporadic stains. Image Dimensions: 28 x 25 cm
