Edward Hopper

Study for French Six-Day Rider
1937

A sketch on tan paper featuring a rough drawing of a building with annotations indicating color choices such as "yellow," "orange," "lemonade," and "chocolate." The building appears to have a flat roof, large windows, and a chimney, with wavy lines suggesting landscaping or terrain around it. To the right, there is a separate doodle of a shape resembling a draped cloth or furniture.
