About this work

This sketch shows three nude women standing close together. Their bodies are drawn in quick, loose lines, with no extra details. The woman on the left holds something small in her hand, while the other two stand with their arms relaxed at their sides. The drawing looks like it was made fast—almost like a quick study rather than a finished piece. The lines are uneven, and the figures don’t quite line up perfectly. If you like this style, check out Wilhelm Lehmbruck.
