This sketch shows a woman standing sideways, dressed in a long, flowing robe tied at the waist. Her hair is pulled back under a loose hat, and her feet are bare. The background is just vertical lines, like a curtain or drapery. The artist used quick, sketchy lines to capture the folds of her clothing. The paper looks rough, almost like the drawing was done fast. Next, look up Whistler, James McNeill to see how he worked with light and shadow.
