Herodias: Page 47, Her feet stepped one before the other is a 1928 by William Walcot, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This sketch shows a woman standing sideways, her body turned slightly away. Her arms rest at her sides, and her legs are long and angled. A loose cloth drapes over her shoulder, and her hair is pulled back. The lines are light and quick, like a quick sketch. The artist focused on the shape of her body and movement, leaving out details. The drawing feels like a study, not a finished piece. Next, look up William Walcot (British, 1874–1943) to see more of his work.
William Walcot RE was a Russian-Scottish architect, graphic artist and etcher, notable as a architect of refined Art Nouveau in Moscow, Russia.
