Madame Cezanne

Paul Cezanne

National Gallery of Art

The image is a sketch of a person's head and upper torso tilted sideways. The person is in a reclined position, facing the right side. The face has soft features with eyes looking upwards, a defined nose, and slightly opened lips. The hair is wavy and loosely styled, covering the temple area. The individual appears to be wearing a coat or jacket with a visible collar. There are no visible jewelry or objects being held. The background is plain with cross-hatched lines, possibly indicating shading or texture. The sketch is on a cream-colored page with minimal surrounding details.
