About this work

This sketch shows a woman standing sideways, one hand resting on her head. She’s dressed in a simple, flowing dress that stops just above her ankles. The lines are loose and quick, giving her a soft, almost dreamy look. The drawing looks like it was done fast—just pencil on paper, with no extra details. The artist focused on the shape of her body and the way her dress moves. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more sketches like this.
