Dancing Figure

About this work

This quick sketch shows a single arm and leg mid-motion, like someone’s caught in the middle of a dance. The lines are loose and wobbly, almost like the artist was drawing fast—just the basic shapes matter. The skin tones are soft, with a pale pinkish wash that blurs the edges. The signature in the corner says it’s by Rodin, dated 1905. He scribbled the name "Madame Simpsons" (maybe a model?) but it’s unclear. If you like this sketchy style, check out Rodin, Auguste.
