Edward Hopper

(Sketches of a Seated Woman with Bonnet, Tipped Over Chair, Woman's Head, and Stool)
1899–1906

A sketch on aged paper featuring a prominent drawing of a seated figure in profile, draped in a cloak, with a hood or head covering. To the right, a smaller, less detailed sketch of a figure seated on a stool, and a few birds in flight. The bottom half of the paper contains rough sketches: a partial figure in the left corner, a study of a foot and sandal in the center, and a profile of a person's head to the right. The artist's signature is visible in the lower right corner.
