Toward Justice is a 1916 crayon by Jean-Louis Forain, held at National Gallery of Art.
This drawing shows three figures in a simple landscape. The figure on the left sits on the ground, looking at the figure on the right, who stands and holds a spear. The third figure is mostly obscured behind the standing figure. The drawing is done in black crayon on laid paper, with loose, expressive lines. The artist's use of simple shapes and lines creates a sense of movement and energy in the scene.
