[QUOTE="moreotherstuff, post: 9505793, member: 56"]I don't know that he ever did it as an engraving, though others may have. It is certainly one of his currently best known drawings, and has been reproduced endlessly. Yours does not look like an engraving to me. It's surprising to me that I'm not finding any antique engravings of this at all. It's possible that it's celebrity is modern. Previous to the 20th C, this probably was seen only as a study, and not acceptable as a complete image.[/QUOTE]
