About this work

This sketch shows a man sitting on a chair, holding a cane and looking down at a woman lying on the ground. The woman is naked, resting on her side with her head on her arm. The drawing is rough, with quick, sketchy lines and shading. The artist used loose strokes to suggest movement and form, focusing more on shapes than details. The paper looks worn, like the drawing might be a quick study rather than a finished piece. If you like this style, check out cross-hatching—it’s a technique that uses parallel lines to build up shadows.
