Edward Hopper

(Seated Female Nude, Profile View, and Sketches of Heads, Foot, and Arm)

1900–1906

A sketch on aged paper depicting a seated female figure in a dynamic pose, with her left leg crossed over her right. She appears contemplative, with her head turned to the side, wearing a cap or headgear. The artist has included studies of a foot, a face, and a bell-shaped object to the right of the main figure. The drawing exhibits strong line work and shading, highlighting the anatomy and form of the subject.
