Edward Hopper

(Three Studies: Reclining Cow, Standing Man in Long Coat and Top Hat, and Man's Head)
1900

A sketch on aged paper featuring a cow lying down at the top and two separate sketches of a man's head at different angles below. The cow is detailed with shading, while the sketches of the man are more loosely drawn with visible strokes. There's a date inscribed, "June 19 1900," suggesting the age of the artwork. The paper's edges are slightly worn, adding to the vintage feel of the drawing.
