Standing Girl in Water and the Other Sitting on Shore (Im Wasser stehendes und am Ufer sitzendes Madchen mit Hut)

Otto Mueller

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a sketch of two nude individuals. Both figures are depicted from the side, with one seated and the other standing. The seated person has a triangular hat or hair covering their head and their face has minimal features, while their limbs are bent as they sit. The standing figure has shoulder-length hair with clear lines and texture, and their facial features are simple with a pronounced nose and long lashes. The setting includes angular shapes for foliage and lines representing ground or water, with the background being abstract. The sketch is signed by Otto Mueller.
