Drawing "Carlos", by David Hockney. Paris 1975.

In Paris, 1975, David Hockney created this minimalist pencil sketch titled "Carlos". The subject is rendered with soft shading, his gaze directed slightly to the right with a contemplative expression. Placed in the upper portion of the composition, the incomplete portrait dissolves at the neck, appearing to float in a large, empty space. The background's grainy texture fades from gray to stark white, emphasizing the solitary figure.
