Edward Hopper

(Sketches of a Young Girl Seated on Table, Hands Grasping, Boot, and Horseshoe)
1899–1906

A sketch of a young girl in a dress and boots leaning over a flat surface, possibly drawing or writing. The girl's hair is tied back with a bow, and the image captures a sense of movement or activity. The background and surrounding details are roughly drawn, with some areas more defined than others, suggesting an unfinished or dynamic scene.
