Women Being Abducted by Two Men with Fallen Figure Beneath (from Sketchbook)
Black and white sketch of a chaotic scene. Two men are pulling a woman to the left. One man is behind the woman and grabbing her right arm. The other man is to her left, grabbing her left arm and lifting her off the ground. The woman's dress is lifted up to her knees. A man lies on the ground beneath them, possibly fallen. The background is dark and shadowy. The sketch is on gray paper with a rough edge around the drawing.
