About this work

A slender standing figure in profile wears tall boots and a brown coat over a mauve garment, with arms folded at the waist. The head is rendered with an exaggerated, almost caricatured profile, including a red-tinged nose and mouth. The work is a pen and watercolor sketch on tan paper, catalogued in the Walters Art Museum under the title Homme en Grande Bottes, attributed to Prosper Mérimée.
