Two Studies: Woman Sewing; Woman at a Desk (from Sketchbook)
Pencil sketch on paper of two women. The woman on the left sits in a chair with a curved back, wearing a long dress, her body facing right and her head turned to face the viewer. Her hands are clasped at her chest; her right leg crosses over her left. The woman on the right stands, turned away from the viewer, wearing a long dress and leaning on a flat surface with her left hand. The background is plain and featureless. The sketch is framed by a black border.
