(Standing Female Nude with Arms Raised)
1920–1925

A charcoal drawing of a standing nude female figure with her arms raised and hands clasping the back of her head. The figure's long hair falls down her back, and the pose suggests a moment of distress or exhaustion. The artist's signature is visible at the bottom right.
