Edward Steichen

Woman with Flowers
1901

A sketch of a person with shoulder-length hair and a neutral expression, framed within a square border on a textured, aged paper. The person appears to be holding a paintbrush or similar object, and there are faint lines suggesting a painting or drawing in progress. The artist's signature is visible in the lower right corner within the frame, and there is a small, vertical numerical annotation on the paper below the sketch. The edges of the paper are irregular and slightly torn.
