About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a simple black dress with a short, flared skirt and long sleeves. Her hair is pulled back under a small hat, and she stands with one hand resting on her hip. The lines are bold and confident, with quick, sketchy strokes. The artist signed it with a small mark in the corner. The name "Merlette" is written at the top, which might be the title. Look up cross-hatching to see how artists build shading with lines.
