Recto: (Three Studies: Hand, Woman in Profile, and Man in Hat)

Verso: (Sketches of Female Figure, Heads, and Arms)

1899–1906

Sketch on aged paper featuring a profile view of a woman with her hair up in a bun, holding what appears to be a fan, and a faint outline of a man in a hat behind her. The drawing is rendered in black ink with expressive lines and minimal detail, capturing the essence of the subjects with a few strokes.
