Untitled ("Babette")

About this work

This sketch shows a woman sitting, leaning back with one arm resting on the back of her chair. She’s wearing a high-necked dress with puffed sleeves, and her hair is pulled up loosely. The lines are quick and sketchy, almost like a quick drawing. The artist left her name signed in the corner—Albert de Belleroche. The loose, sketchy style makes it feel like a study or a quick idea rather than a finished work. If you like this style, check out The Cleveland Museum of Art to see more of his work.
