Edward Hopper

(Seated Woman in Towel, Profile View)
1900–1906

A sketch on aged paper depicting a seated figure with their head bowed and legs crossed. The drawing is rendered with soft, delicate lines, creating a sense of introspection or melancholy. The background is lightly detailed, suggesting an interior space with minimal features. The paper's edges are irregular, and there are some smudges and spots, indicating the artwork's vintage character.
