About this work
Shown in strict profile facing left, a young woman with her hair gathered into a loose knot looks off to the side with a calm, composed expression. Her shoulders are draped in a poncho-like garment marked with bold geometric chevrons and stripes, while her neck and collarbone are left largely undefined against the plain paper ground.
The drawing is worked in sepia and reddish-brown tones, likely sanguine and charcoal, with the face built up in soft, blended shading and the hair and garment left in looser, more graphic hatching. The unfinished, sketch-like handling of the drapery against the tightly modeled face gives the study a focused, academic quality typical of a life-drawing exercise.
