Head of a Young Woman

Moritz Daniel Oppenheim

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a sketch of a woman's head and upper shoulders in a three-quarter view. She is positioned to the side with her head slightly tilted. Her facial features include softly rounded cheeks, a straight nose, and shaded eyes looking towards the viewer's left. Her mouth is closed, and her hair is neatly styled and pulled back, with a rolled section framing her ear. The woman's clothing is minimally detailed, with no visible embellishments. The background is a plain, lightly textured paper with a few small specks.
