About this work

This sketch shows a woman’s face and shoulders, drawn with quick, loose lines. Her hair is messy, almost like tangled ropes, and her hat sits low on her head. The paper looks worn, with smudges and faint pencil marks everywhere. The artist focused on rough, sketchy strokes instead of smooth details. It feels like they were drawing fast, maybe from memory. Next, check out Ernest Haskell (American, 1876–1925) for more of his work.
