This sketch shows a woman standing with her back to us, holding a cane. She’s dressed in a long, flowing dress with a high collar, and her hair is pulled back. In front of her is a large, rounded chair with a high back, and a table with a few objects on it. The drawing looks loose and quick, like a study rather than a finished piece. The artist focused on shapes and light rather than fine details. Next, check out chiaroscuro to see how light and shadow create drama in art.
