Edward Hopper

(Study for Female Bathers)
1915–1918

A sketch on paper depicting a rough seascape with a large, dark, and textured rock formation on the left. Two figures appear in the middle ground on a beach, with one seated and the other standing. Gentle hills rise in the background under a blank sky. The artist's signature is visible in the bottom right corner. The paper shows signs of age with discolored edges and slight tears.
