Second state cancelled. The background covered with mostly horizontal lines, 8 of which extend over the right shoulder. The roots of the hair in the middle of the forehead brought lower down by means of about a dozen fresh lines - the modeling of the left side of the face reinforced with horizontal lines. Possibly other small details in the face.
