Two Studies of a Dog: Lying Down and Rear View Standing (from Sketchbook)
Pencil sketch on paper of two studies of a dog. The paper has a thin black border, with a thicker black line on the top and bottom edges. The left study shows a dog lying down, drawn in more detail. The dog faces right; it has a long snout, hanging ears, and its front paws are stretched out. The right study shows a dog standing and viewed from behind, drawn with less detail. The dog faces left; the top of its head is obscured. The background of the paper is white with small dark smudges.
