A quick sketch made at a dinner party by Orlik as a sort of parlor game, where the artist completed a drawing using two arbitrarily drawn lines by his hostess. In this instance the initial lines are in red, and Orlik has completed the image - the head of a man wearing a brimmed hat - in black.

Folded in half horizontally, with some rumpling along the right edge.
