You see two male figures jumping in this drawing. They're drawn in dynamic poses, with lines showing movement. The artist used a grid to help get the figures right. This drawing is interesting because it shows the artist's process. He was studying how to draw the human body in motion. He used simple lines to show the figures' movement.
