Eye Candy for Today: Adolph Menzel graphite drawing
// lines and colors
Carl John Arnold, Adolph Menzel
In the Morgan Library and Museum, use Zoom tab or download link.
Menzel gives us a superbly adept rendering in pencil. The drawing feels at once finished and casual.
Either the subject had a large head, or Menzel — after focusing on the portrait — compressed the figure somewhat to fit it on the paper.
Beautiful, nonetheless.
