About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a simple black outfit. She wears a small hat and a matching dress with a bow at the waist. The lines are bold and dark, with some shading on her face and hands. The name "Breitschwantz" is written in the corner, but it’s unclear what it means here. The drawing looks like it was made quickly, focusing on shapes and shadows. If you like this style, check out Carven, the artist who made it.
