Marjorie, Emma and Elsie, Second Stone is a 1921 by George Bellows, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This sketch shows three women sitting close together in a dim room. The woman on the left leans forward, holding a small object. The middle woman sits straight, her hands folded in her lap. The woman on the right is turned slightly, looking down at something in her hands. Their clothes are simple but neat—dark jackets and light dresses. The artist used quick, loose lines to capture their faces and posture, giving it a sketchy, unfinished feel. The lighting is soft, with shadows blending into the background.
