Male Nude on a Stool
n.d.

A detailed pencil sketch on tan paper depicting a seated male figure with well-defined muscles, posed on a stool with one leg crossed over the other. The figure's gaze is directed slightly upward and to the side. To the left of the figure, there are smaller sketches, including a study of a hand and a simplified profile of a face. The top edge of the paper is roughly torn, adding to the raw, artistic quality of the work.
