f. 7v., head of an indigenous man

In this detail, we see a close-up of the head of one of the indigenous man who is standing on our left. Shadows on his face, by his eyes and on the side of his face, is shown in brown, as is the shading on the side of his neck and across the top of his shoulder. His eyes are shaped with folds on the eyelids and somewhat elevated eyebrows. His mouth has distinctive curvy lines for the top and bottom lips, along with what may be a pencil-thin mustache between the mouth and nose. The edge of his jaw appears to have some facial hair (marked in black). His black hair is full, but appears to stop at his shoulders. He has what may be a black feather or ponytail coming up off the top of his head. [SW]
