Figure Studies [verso]

About this work

This image shows a piece of paper with a vertical red chalk line down the center. The left side features a sketch of multiple figures in various poses, drawn in brown ink. The figures appear to be studies of the human form, with some depicted in motion and others in static positions. The right side of the paper contains handwritten text in an unknown language, which may be notes or a description of the sketches. The text is written in a flowing script and takes up most of the right side of the page. To learn more about the artistic techniques used in this piece, explore the technique of cross-hatching.
