(Study of a Man and Woman Reading on a Porch)
c. 1900

A vintage sketch of a woman sitting on a chair reading a newspaper under the shade of a striped awning, with a railing and lattice work visible in the background. The artwork is rendered in a monochromatic palette with touches of white, and the paper shows signs of aging around the edges.
