About this work

This sketch shows a woman standing with her arms raised behind her head. She’s naked except for a pair of lacy stockings and high heels. The drawing is loose and quick, with simple lines that focus on her body shape. The title is written at the top: *"Give Your Molly!"*—a playful, almost cheeky note. The artist signed it in the corner with just their initials. If you like this sketch, check out Otto Dix for more of his sharp, honest drawings.
