Anneliese Halbe is a 1918 ink by Lovis Corinth, held at National Gallery of Art.
This sketch shows a woman sitting with her hands resting on her lap. She’s wearing a high-collared dress with buttons down the front, and her hair is pulled back neatly. The lines are loose and quick, giving it a sketchy, unfinished feel. The artist signed it in the corner—you can just make out the name "Corinth." The paper has a warm, slightly textured look, like it was drawn on regular paper. Want to know more? Check out lithography to see how this print was made.
