About this work

This sketch shows a woman’s body in profile, her head turned slightly to the side. The lines are loose and quick, with no hard edges—just soft strokes that suggest shape more than detail. Her hair and limbs blur into the page, almost like a quick sketch from memory. The drawing feels unfinished on purpose, as if the artist was more interested in movement than precision. The signature in the corner reads "C. E. Grunspan '44," which might hint at the year it was made. If you like this style, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum for more works like it.
