Artist, German, 1891 - 1979

The image is a pencil drawing of a woman from head to mid-calf. She is in a dynamic, forward-leaning pose, with one leg raised and slightly bent. The woman has short hair styled in soft waves and is wearing a loose-fitting sleeveless top with thin straps and a layered skirt or petticoat, which she is lifting with one hand. She is looking forward with a faint smile on her face. The background is plain, and the artist's initials, "K.K.", are in the lower right corner of the drawing.
