This sketch shows a quick, loose drawing of a nude person from behind. The lines are rough and the colors are mostly peach, orange, and gray, with some blue at the bottom. The paper looks worn, and the strokes are uneven, like the artist worked fast. The signature in the top right corner reads "Alexandru Phoebus, Paris," hinting this might have been done while traveling. The simplicity of the lines makes it feel more like a study than a finished piece. Next, check out artist: Phoebus, Alexandru to see more of his work.
