About this work

This sketch shows a dark-haired woman standing near a tree. She’s facing sideways, her body partly hidden by the tree’s trunk. The background is mostly gray, but her red dress pops out at the bottom. The lines are rough, like they were drawn fast. The artist signed it in the top corner—*Émile Bernard, 1933*. The red in her dress looks like it was painted on after the black lines, almost like a splash. Want to see more of this artist’s work? Check out Émile Bernard.
