The Toilet by Robert Frederick Blum: A pastel drawing of a woman sitting on the floor, with her back to the viewer and her head turned to the left. She appears to be adjusting her clothing. The woman has dark hair pulled back. She is sitting on a blue patterned cloth or fabric. The background is a muted brown color with some darker shadows. The overall color palette is soft and muted, with shades of brown, purple, and blue. The woman's body is mostly bare, with her upper body and back exposed. She has her left arm raised. Her legs are crossed. The drawing appears to be a study or sketch, with loose and expressive lines.
