Edward Hopper

(Three Studies: Native American Man in Suit and Glasses, and Shoe)

1899–1906

A vertical series of four black ink sketches on a long, narrow piece of paper. The top sketch depicts a full-length profile of a man with a feather in his hair, wearing a fringed garment. Below, a second sketch shows a man with a beard in profile, wearing a coat. The third sketch is an incomplete study of the same man's legs and feet. The bottom sketch is a rough, abstract series of lines suggesting a spiral form, with no clear subject.
