"Tête d'homme, la bouche ouverte et les yeux écarquillés (recto); Femme couronnée assise, les bras tendus en avant (verso)" is a double-sided drawing by the French artist Baron François Gérard, a prominent painter in the Neoclassical style. François Gérard (1770–1837) was a pupil of Jacques-Louis David and became one of the most sought-after portraitists of his time, serving the courts of Napoleon Bonaparte and the restored Bourbon kings. His works are characterized by their elegance, clarity, and a certain idealization of the human form, typical of the Neoclassical aesthetic.

The recto of the drawing, "Tête d'homme, la bouche ouverte et les yeux écarquillés," translates to "Head of a man, mouth open and eyes wide," and depicts a dramatic male visage, possibly a study for a historical or mythological painting, capturing a moment of intense emotion. The verso, "Femme couronnée assise, les bras tendus en avant," or "Seated crowned woman, arms stretched forward," presents a regal female figure, which may have been a preparatory sketch for a larger composition involving a figure of authority or allegory.

The drawing exemplifies Gérard's skill in rendering the human figure with both accuracy and expressive force. The contrast between the two sides of the drawing may reflect the artist's versatility in portraying different characters and emotions, a skill that contributed to his success as a portraitist and historical painter.

The artwork is significant for its demonstration of Gérard's working process, offering insights into his approach to composition and his ability to capture the essence of a subject with a few deft strokes. As a historical artifact, the drawing also provides a window into the artistic conventions and societal values of the late 18th and early 19th centuries.

While the exact date of creation and the provenance of "Tête d'homme, la bouche ouverte et les yeux écarquillés (recto); Femme couronnée assise, les bras tendus en avant (verso)" may not be well-documented, the piece remains an important example of François Gérard's draftsmanship and his contribution to the Neoclassical movement in French art.
