Standing Figure [verso]

James McNeill Whistler

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a faint sketch of a full-body outline of a standing person on brown paper. The person's arms are close to the body with indistinct details, and the facial features and hair are not clearly defined. There is no clothing, jewelry, or objects visible, and the background is solely the brown paper.
