Edward Hopper

(Sketches of Female Figure, Woman in Hat, Man in Bathing Suit, and Man's Arm and Shoulder)
1906–1907

A weathered piece of paper featuring a series of rough, expressive sketches in black ink. The central figure appears to be a person with outstretched arms, possibly dancing or in motion. Above and to the right, there are abstract sketches that resemble fish or faces in profile. Below the central figure is a portrait of a person with a beard and a spiral on their chest. The paper has a torn edge on the top left, and there are a few small stains scattered across it.
