Edward Hopper

(Sketches of Male and Female Nudes, Anatomy, and Heads)
1900–1906

A collage of various pencil sketches on paper, depicting human figures in different poses and movements. Some sketches are detailed studies of muscular anatomy, while others are more abstract or gestural. The figures are drawn with varying degrees of completeness, from full body sketches to isolated limbs or torsos. One sketch in the lower right corner shows a detailed anatomical study of a figure from the back, with muscles and skeletal structure indicated. The paper shows signs of wear and age, with some discoloration and creases.
