Tent (recto); Two Sketches (verso)

Josef Platzer

Cleveland Museum of Art

Brown sketch on aged paper of a tent or stage with draped fabric. The fabric appears to be gathered at the top and hangs in folds down the sides. The drawing is done in a loose, expressive style with visible pencil marks. The background of the paper is light brown with darker brown shading around the edges. The image shows a single scene on one side; the back has two smaller sketches.
