Sketchbook- The Granite Shore Hotel, Rockport, page 133: Nude Walking

Maurice Prendergast

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a sketchbook page with a black and white drawing of a nude figure. The page is yellowed and has a rough texture. The drawing depicts a woman with curly hair walking to the right, her left arm raised to her head. Her left leg is extended behind her and her right leg is bent in front. The drawing is done in black ink and consists of loose, expressive lines. To the right of the main figure, there are some scribbled lines and shapes. In the top-right corner of the page, the number 133 is written in small black text. The page has a worn and aged appearance, with visible signs of use and handling. The drawing appears to be a quick study or gesture drawing. The overall effect is one of simplicity and elegance.
