About this work

This sketch shows a woman sitting sideways, her legs tucked under her. She’s leaning on one arm, her head tilted slightly as she looks down. The lines are loose and quick, with some shading to show her curves and the fabric of her dress. The artist used simple strokes to suggest movement, especially in her hair and the chair behind her. The sketch feels quick and sketchy, like it was drawn fast. Next, check out Impressionism to see how this style fits in.
