Love the 'feel' of this one, Cesare, the pencil lines add so much and the eyes are superbly drawn.!

Nice portrait of Raphaelle, showing the light source reflected upon his features and pigments do reveal his character well, his eyes are steady and show attentiveness too!

Thank you Chrissie, Heather, and Angela for your kind comments. Hi Dennis, I wonder if you have had one pint too many looking at this old Italian man like an African mask.
