This matched pair of charcoal portrait drawings depicts a young woman and a young man rendered in a realistic, finely detailed style. Each portrait focuses on facial expression and subtle shading, with careful attention to proportion, texture, and tonal depth. The figures are set against softly suggested backgrounds that keep emphasis on the subjects’ features and presence. Both works are signed and dated 1972 by the artist at the lower right, and are presented in matching frames, making them well suited for paired display or as a cohesive portrait set.
