Label TextThese lively figure studies reveal the working methods Kensett and Casilear employed in their costume drawings. The line to the left of the figure in Kensett's Seated Man with Small Horn represents an abandoned start to the composition. In Man with a Pipe, Casilear, or perhaps a playful classmate, added a caricature to the upper-right corner.Status
