About this work

This sketch depicts a nude figure, likely a woman, drawn in pencil and ink on paper. The subject's face is obscured, and her body is rendered in loose, expressive lines. A few scribbled notes are visible at the top of the page, but they don't seem to relate directly to the drawing. The overall effect is one of spontaneity and experimentation. If you're interested in exploring more works by the artist who created this sketch, you might want to look up Jannis Kounellis.
