The Fitting [verso]

Mary Cassatt

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a sketch of four standing figures with their upper bodies visible. The figures are arranged with two in the foreground and two in the background. Their facial features are minimally detailed, and only the contours are shown. The two figures in the foreground have their heads slightly bowed. The figures in the background are positioned one behind the other. The figures appear unclothed, with outlines of their bodies drawn. There are no visible accessories or objects. The background is plain, suggesting an unfurnished room. A note reading "PH 32" is in the top left corner.
