The Grinning Figure

A monochrome pen drawing presents a broad-shouldered, curly-haired figure with an exaggerated grin, heavy brows, and stippled facial hair. Small, loosely rendered figures or objects are gathered in the character’s hands and draped over one shoulder, while the handwritten “√ANS” mark anchors the shirt. Dense horizontal hatching fills the background and lower edge, giving the scene an uncanny, theatrical presence reminiscent of an expressive graphic-novel panel.
