Edward Hopper

(Dutch Girl)
1900

A partially completed oil sketch on canvas depicting a young girl in a dress holding a cat. The background is loosely painted with broad strokes of greenish paint, while the figure of the girl and the cat are more detailed but still appear unfinished. The girl wears a white cap with what appears to be rolls of paint attached to the sides, and her facial features are sketched in with minimal detail. The canvas edges are visible, showing the raw, unpainted material.
