Artifact: Drawing by John Singer

Barrymore, drawn by John Singer, 1923
 
Pencil sketch of Barrymore's head, face on to the artist
    
           This drawing of John was done excellently by John Singer and put into the files of Barrymore portraits. From what I can decipher of the note written at the bottom it says, "To my friend John Barrymore...?" Then the date of the drawing. The drawing has intense detail of his face and shadowing. I think its interesting that he had friends when he talks about how professional he is.
