Francis William Edmonds

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a sketch of a seated man and a standing woman on a white background. The man on the left sits in a chair, wearing a hat, with his body facing left and his head slightly bowed. He appears to be wearing a collared shirt and pants. The woman on the right stands with her body facing right, her head turned to face the man. She wears a long dress. Both figures are drawn in pencil. The sketch is in a sketchbook with visible edges.
