Artist, German, 1881 - 1919

Three full-body sketches of women kneeling in different poses. The first woman on the left is turned slightly to the left, head bowed with her eyes closed, and arms crossed over her chest. She has long hair that hangs to the side. The second woman in the center faces forward with her head slightly turned to the side, arms crossed over her stomach, and long hair falling loosely. The third woman on the right is turned to the right, with one hand on her head and the other arm slightly bent across her body. Her hair is pulled back, accentuating her face. All figures are nude, and there are no accessories or objects. The background is a textured surface.
