About this work

This pencil drawing on paper depicts a woman with short, dark hair and a wide-brimmed hat. Her eyes are closed, and her lips are slightly parted. The drawing is rendered in a range of grays, with the woman's face and hat standing out against a lighter background. The artist's use of pencil creates a sense of softness and subtlety, drawing the viewer's attention to the subject's gentle features. The overall effect is one of quiet contemplation, inviting the viewer to reflect on the woman's serene expression. To learn more about the artist behind this piece, explore the work of Alex Katz.
