Description

This rare print was intended for the series The Representatives Represented but was never published.
A vertically oriented lithograph in black ink depicts Michel Goudchaux, a stocky man with a light skin tone, in profile facing and looking to our right. Rendered with fine hatch marks, the caricature features an exaggeratedly large head and wavy hair. Wearing a dark coat, he crouches with bent knees, clutching his chest with wide eyes and an open mouth. To our right, a glass on a saucer rests upon a simple table.
