E.E. Cummings

Untitled (Woman Dancing, Legs Spread, rear view)
1920s

A sketch of a reclining figure on aged, yellowed paper with rough edges. The drawing is minimalistic, with loose, flowing lines suggesting the form of a person lying on their back. The head is detailed with dark, scribbled hair, while the rest of the body is outlined with a few simple strokes. There's a small, curly line drawn near the top right corner of the paper.
