About this work

This sketch shows two women sitting side by side on a couch. One holds a piece of paper, while the other rests her hands together. Their clothes are simple, with loose sleeves and modest necklines. The drawing is loose and quick, with soft shading and no sharp lines. The artist focused on everyday life, not fancy poses or bright colors. The women look relaxed, like they’re just having a quiet moment. If you like this style, check out Impressionism.
