Nude study is a 1932 by Pavlaki-Ioannidou Popi, held at Athens School of Fine Arts.
This drawing shows a standing nude figure in soft pencil. The lines are delicate but precise. You can see the artist working to capture the body’s weight and balance. This is a study, not a finished work. Artists often use these to practice shapes and shadows. Tiny marks around the edges suggest the artist was testing different poses quickly.
