Standing Draped Female Figure; Portrait of a Cleric; Half-length Portrait of a Man; Figures with Wagons and Horses (Napoleon Scene?) (from Sketchbook)

Thomas Sully

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Gray rectangular sketch with rough edges. The left side features a standing female figure wearing a draped garment, her left hand on her hip and right hand on her side. Her hair is short. To the right, a man in clerical attire is depicted with his hands clasped. In the center, a smaller, darker sketch shows a woman with her hand to her face. At the bottom, a scene with people, wagons, and horses. The sketch appears to be a compilation of separate studies on one page.
