What is known

The subject bends close over his work, glasses low on his nose, drawing with a long pencil under a lit table lamp. A white mug painted with blue leaves sits out of focus in the foreground, and a green view shows through the window behind. No subtitle appears. Maker, origin, and date are not recorded. The exif scrub reported no location metadata to strip.
