The Long Baguette

Finished hand-drawn editorial illustration, square 1:1. One comically elongated baguette sweeps from the lower-left toward the upper-right, slightly below the centre. Its broad, bulbous heel narrows along a gently bowed body to a tiny rounded tip. Three broad crust ears interrupt the upper outer edge, making the bread recognisable through silhouette alone. Draw only the exterior contour in a bold rust-brown felt-tip marker line, with slight natural wobble and softly rounded turns. The bread interior remains the same warm ivory as the plain background: no fill, internal marks, hatching or shadow. Playful asymmetric proportions, graceful spacing, generous clear margins and especially open space at upper-left. Simple, confident, legible at thumbnail size. No people, props, text, logos or watermarks.
