Edward Hopper

(Anatomical Sketches, Heads, Soldier, Mother and Child)
1899–1906

A collage of various pencil sketches on a folded, off-white paper. The sketches include studies of human figures in different poses, facial expressions, and anatomical details such as a skull. Some drawings depict figures in motion, like a man throwing a ball, while others show more static poses, such as a seated individual. The sketches are loosely arranged, with some overlapping, and exhibit a range of shading techniques.
