Yes or No is a 1778 graphite by Jean-Michel the Younger Moreau, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This drawing shows a woman sitting in a relaxed pose, dressed in a fancy 18th-century outfit. Her gown is light pink with ruffles and embroidery, and she wears a big white bow in her hair. The background is plain and blurry, keeping all the focus on her. The artist used soft red chalk and graphite to create smooth shading, with white highlights to make the fabric look rich. The date "1778" is signed in the corner, showing this was made over 200 years ago. Next, check out the National Gallery of Art, Washington to see more works like this.
