(Study of a Woman Standing in Doorway with Striped Awning)
c. 1900

A monochromatic painting depicting a woman standing in the doorway of a building with a shaded facade. The woman is wearing a dress with an apron, and her posture suggests she may be leaning against the door frame. The artwork has a sketch-like quality with visible brush strokes and a limited color palette, primarily consisting of black, white, and brown tones. A fire hydrant is also visible on the sidewalk near the building's entrance.
