Projeto Portinari
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Composition in black and gray. Contour lines and shading. Composition representing man standing in profile to the left, taking up almost the entire support height. The model is young, dark, has short hair and appears to be naked. His face has defined facial features, his on the left arm is along the body and the on the right suggests being bent, with hand on the neck. That is as a leaning wall, with their slightly bent on the left leg and suggesting rest position.
