Compositional Study? (possibly for "Poussin’s Deluge") (verso)
The image shows a brown-toned sketch or study on paper. The artwork features smudges, marks, and faint lines in shades of brown, black, and gray. The background is a warm brown color with visible darker smudges and scratches throughout. There are some lighter areas suggesting possible corrections or layered work. Small numbers are handwritten at the bottom right corner. The edges are rough and uneven with patches of gray tape in the top corners. Overall, the artwork appears to be a preparatory study with expressive marks.
