Three Heads, One of Madame Cezanne

Paul Cezanne

National Gallery of Art

The image features two head studies sketched on a paper. On the left, a partial left profile view of a head is shown with the outline of an ear and short hair. On the right, a frontal view of a face with short, parted, and combed back hair is depicted. The drawings focus solely on the head without any indication of clothing or surroundings. The sketches are drawn in pencil on a plain background, with the edges of the paper visible at the top and bottom.
