It's grade 'h' . Which means it has half graphite(darkness) , half clay(hardness). It's neither too hard , nor too soft...writes grey

The "lead" in drawing pencils has various grades or hardness. The hardness of a drawing pencil is designated by a number and an H. The higher the number the harder the pencil is, the slower it wears done, the longer it retains its point, the less it smudges and the lighter the line is that is drawn. For example, 6H pencils are harder than 2H pencils. The softness of a pencil is designated by a number and a B. The higher the number the softer the pencil is, the faster it wears down, the easier it is to smudge and blend, and the darker the line is that is drawn. For example 8B pencils are softer than 2B pencils. There is a standard, middle of the road pencil, the HB pencil, sometimes called the Number two pencil. This has some of the drawing qualities of both hard and soft pencils and in a pinch will serve for most drawing and writing needs.
A regular #2 school type pencil lacks the amount of graphite that is in a typical drawing pencil. A higher level of graphite is necessary for longevity of the artwork and for contrast in the drawing.
So the drawing is a very fine line and easy to rub out?

Any pencil can draw... but, pencils made specifically for drawing, have different darkness (smoothness) grades so we can make different areas light or dark which is difficult with just one pencil...got it?

HB stands for "hard black" and is a designation used to indicate the hardness and darkness of the graphite core in a pencil. The HB pencil is commonly used for general writing and drawing purposes.
No, he just used graphite (a naturally occuring drawing medium). The figure of the prince is drawn with a soft pencil and the background flowers with a hard pencil. Soft pencil makes an image darker, while a hard pencil makes an image lighter or silver.
