Edward Hopper

(Study of a Seated Woman Holding Child)
1899–1906

A charcoal drawing of a seated woman holding a baby. The woman is in profile, looking down at the infant cradled in her arms. The background suggests a simple interior with a window, and the artwork has a rough, sketch-like quality with visible smudges and strokes.
