Edward Hopper

(Study of Seated Woman in Hat, Crossed Out)
1899–1906

A sketch on tan paper depicting a person seated in profile on a wooden chair, wearing a hat with a brim and a coat with visible buttons. The person's face is not detailed, and the sketch is characterized by dynamic, expressive lines, suggesting movement or a quick capture of the moment. The background is minimal, with only a few lines indicating the edge of the chair and the surrounding space.
