Study of the female nude

About this work

This sketch shows a side view of a nude woman standing with one leg slightly bent. Her arms rest loosely at her sides, and her back is turned toward someone behind her. The lines are soft and simple, with no extra details. The artist focused on the shape of the body, not the skin or clothes. The paper has a warm, tan color, and the drawing looks like it was made quickly. Next, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
