Woman with Veil

Honoré Daumier

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a drawing of a person from the waist up in a seated position. The individual's body is slightly turned to one side, with arms resting along their torso. The facial features are defined with confident lines, including eyes, nose, and a subtle smile. The hair is depicted with wavy lines, suggesting a textured style. The person appears unclothed, and there are no visible jewelry items or objects. The background is a plain, lightly textured surface.
