Saint Tugdual is a 1888 by Pierre Roche, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This sketch shows a side view of a woman in a simple dress. Her hair is pulled back, and she looks off to the side. The background is plain, with no extra details. The name "Sant Tugdual" is written at the top, but it’s unclear if that’s the woman’s name. The artist used a scratchy, textured method to make the lines. Next, check out Impressionism to see how artists like Roche played with light and simple lines.
Pierre Roche (Paris, 2 August 1855 – Paris, 18 January 1922), pseudonym of Pierre Henry Ferdinand Massignon, was a French sculptor, painter, ceramist and medallist.
