Three Studies: Standing Figure Facing Left; Interior with Figures and a Dog; Landscape (from Sketchbook)

Francis William Edmonds

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a black and white sketch with three studies. The left study depicts a standing figure facing left. The figure is drawn with faint pencil lines, making it hard to distinguish details. The right middle study shows an interior scene with figures and a dog. One figure sits and holds an object above their head. The right study appears to be a landscape. The sketch is drawn on a piece of paper with a black border around it and some smudges and marks on the paper. The paper has a white background. The overall style is simple and appears to be a quick sketch.
