About this work

This sketch shows two people sitting side by side on a low bench or floor. One wears a light pink garment with a dark shawl draped over their shoulders, while the other has a blue skirt and a white head covering. Their backs are turned, and the artist used quick, loose brushstrokes to capture their shapes. The painting feels more like a quick study than a finished work—notice how the background is just a wash of color with no detail. The focus is clearly on the two figures and their clothing. Next, look up Carol Szathmari to see more of their work.
