Verona Sketchbook: Female nude (page 27)

Francesco Lorenzi

Cleveland Museum of Art

The drawing depicts a female nude with her body facing right and her head turned to the left. Her hair is pulled back and secured at the top of her head. The drawing is rendered in red chalk on a piece of paper with a gray-blue background. The paper appears aged, with rough and torn edges. The woman's facial features include a straight nose, thin lips, and her eyes are closed. Her left breast is exposed, and her right arm is not visible. The drawing style is sketchy and appears to be a study or preparatory work.
