Edward Hopper

(Sketches of Two Jockeys on Horseback, Seated Man Playing Drum, Native American Man in Canoe, Boats, and Skull)
1895–1899

A sketch on a beige paper featuring a series of drawings. At the top, there's a dynamic sketch of two figures riding a horse, with the horse appearing to leap forward. Below, there are fragmented sketches of what seem to be parts of a flag or standard, with a hand visible in one of the drawings. The sketches are loosely drawn with a focus on movement and appear to be studies for a larger work.
