Untitled is a 1917 by Horace Brodzky, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This sketch shows a person kneeling with their back to us, one arm raised as if adjusting their hair. The lines are loose and quick, with just a few shading strokes to suggest form. The paper is plain, and the whole thing feels like a fast study rather than a finished piece. The artist signed it "Brodzky 1917" in the corner, so it’s from over a century ago. The simplicity of the lines makes it feel more like a practice drawing than a polished work. If you like this style, check out Brodzky, Horace.
A drawing by Horace Brodzky depicts a female nude figure positioned on one knee to the left.
