Italian Sketchbook: Street Scene with a Girl ( page 159)

Maurice Prendergast

Cleveland Museum of Art

A pencil sketch on beige paper depicts a girl standing on a street. The girl has curly hair and wears a long dress with a pattern. She stands facing away from the viewer, angled slightly right. The buildings behind her have two stories. The ground floor features a shop with a large doorway. A shelf with potted plants is drawn along the second story. Windows are shown on both floors of the building. The buildings to the left and right are partially drawn. The sketching lines vary in thickness and shading. The overall appearance is casual and simple.
