About this work

This sketch shows a person sitting on a chair, drawing their knees up. Their arms are wrapped around their legs, and their head is tucked down. The lines are simple, almost like a quick doodle, with just a few spots of color—red on the feet and a brownish patch on the head. The rough, uneven strokes give it a raw, unfinished feel. It looks like it was made fast, without much smoothing out. Next, check out The Cleveland Museum of Art to see more works like this.
