Profile of a Man
Alphonse Legros French and British
Not on view
Legros produced drawings of this sort in his role as professor at University College London’s Slade School of Fine Art, a post he held from 1876−92. The French émigré refused to speak English, so relied heavily upon demonstration to instruct his students. A related drawing in the collection of the Princeton University Art Museum shows the same model from a slightly different angle.
