About this work

This drawing shows two people lying down on a rough surface. The person on the right is turned toward the left, holding something small in their hand. The person on the left is standing, with a simple outline and no details. The lines are bold and dark, with some areas left plain white. The artist used thick black lines to create shapes instead of shading. This style makes the figures look flat and graphic. Look up Elie Nadelman to see more of his work.
