Two Seated Women (verso) is a 1858 by Edgar Degas, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
The image depicts a sketch of two women seated in a room, facing each other. The woman on the left is wearing a dark dress with her hair pulled back, while the woman on the right is dressed in lighter attire with her hair styled in an updo. The background of the room is not clearly defined, but it appears to be a simple, unadorned space. The sketch is rendered in a loose, expressive style, with bold lines and minimal detail. The artist's use of shading and texture adds depth and dimension to the image, drawing the viewer's eye to the faces and clothing of the two women. This sketch is reminiscent of the work of Edgar Degas, who was known for his Impressionist paintings of everyday life.
