Visual Summary

Brief Description

A man with a wide-open mouth and closed eyes inserts a thin stick into his nostril

Detailed Description

The artwork depicts a single figure, likely a man, from the chest up, positioned slightly left of center against a plain, light beige background. The figure's head is tilted back and turned towards the right, with his mouth wide open, revealing a reddish tongue. His eyes are closed or heavily lidded, and his eyebrows are thick and furrowed. A thin, light-colored stick is held between the thumb and forefinger of his left hand, which is visible on the lower left. The stick extends upwards and is inserted into his left nostril. The man has a prominent nose, a dark, short beard or stubble around his chin and jawline, and a visible ear with a simple ring earring on the right side of his head. His hair or a draped garment is rendered in broad, vertical stripes of reddish-brown and black, flowing down his back and shoulders. The overall color palette is limited to these reddish-browns, black, and the light beige of the background and skin tones.
