Who is this in the sketch?
Bought this pencil sketch from a junk shop. It is completely unsigned and probably the artist is completely untraceable>>>but was wondering if anyone could suggest who the sketch is of? Thought it might be one of the Greek philosophers........
The resolution of the image is not great, apologies |

It does have the look of being a drawing of a sculpture. Don't recognize the subject offhand, though.

I checked Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle and it looks the most like Socrates to me but it could also be Aristotle.
