(Female Nude Leaning on Stool)
1920–1925

A sketch of a nude female figure seated on a stool, with one leg crossed over the other, rendered in red pencil on a beige paper background. The figure's pose is relaxed and contemplative, with her head slightly tilted and her hair loosely drawn. The drawing exhibits a study of human anatomy and form, with visible strokes and shading to define the muscles and contours of the body.
