(Seated Female Nude, Profile View)
1920–1925

A charcoal drawing on paper depicting a seated female figure with her arms resting on her raised knees and her head slightly tilted downward. The artist's signature and a number are visible in the lower right corner. The drawing style is expressive with strong contrasts and shading, capturing the form and posture of the figure in a minimalistic yet detailed manner.
