This sketch shows two quick drawings of a foot wearing a sandal. The lines are loose and rough, like a fast study. One foot is seen from the side, the other from the front, with straps crossing over the toes. The notes on the page mention "Berlin Museum" and "Paris," but these might just be jotted ideas—not the actual places the work belongs. The sandals look simple, with straps and a flat sole. If you like how this sketch captures everyday life, check out cross-hatching next—it’s a drawing technique that uses layers of lines to build up shadows.
