About this work

This sketch shows a seated person with loose, sketchy lines. Their face is round and smiling, with a bit of a double chin. The body is bare except for a draped cloth over the shoulders. The hands rest on their lap, and the background is just a few quick strokes—no details. The artist used a drypoint needle to carve into the plate, creating a scratchy, textured effect. The lines are uneven, almost like they were drawn fast. Check out *The Museum of Modern Art* to see more works like this.
