This sketch shows a person from behind, wearing a long coat and hat. Their posture is stiff, almost like they’re standing still in a crowd. The lines are loose and quick, giving the figure a rough, sketchy feel. The artist signed it in the corner, marking it as one of 50 prints. The drawing feels simple but has a lot of detail in the folds of the coat. Check out more by the artist Isabel Bishop.
