A vertically oriented drypoint print depicts various sketches of James MacNeill Whistler. At the top left, he stands wearing a vest and jacket. At the top center, a hand holds a needle above a faint face. A large profile of Whistler dominates the center, facing right. The bottom half contains several sketches of his face from various angles. Fine black lines create overlapping forms, including a man in a hat at top right.
