About this work

This sketch shows a person sitting on a wooden chair, turned slightly to the side. Their legs are crossed, and they’re wearing a loose, draped garment with a head covering. The background is plain, with just a hint of another shape behind them. The brushwork is loose and fast, almost like a quick study. The artist left some areas rough, focusing more on shapes than details. If you like this style, check out Venny Soldan-Brofeldt.
