Woman Having Supper is a 1903 ink by Georges Bottini, held at National Gallery of Art.
This sketch shows a woman sitting at a table, leaning on her elbow. She’s wearing a white cap with a flower and a simple dress. On the table, there’s a pitcher, a cup, and a plate with a few small fruits or pastries. Behind her, a man is standing, holding something in his hand. The lines are rough and the colors are mostly browns and soft pinks. The artist used a scratchy, hand-drawn style that makes the scene feel quick and sketchy. The table looks cluttered but cozy, like a quiet moment caught in time. If you like this style, check out etching to see how artists create these kinds of prints.
