Artist, American, 1922 - 1993

The image is a sketch of a human figure viewed from behind, showing the upper shoulders down to the legs. The person stands with one arm bent and hand on the hip, while the other hangs down the side. Facial features are not visible, and the head is not detailed, with minimal strokes suggesting short or tied hair. The figure is unclothed, depicted with simple lines defining the body's contours. The plain background emphasizes the figure. In the lower right corner, there is a red stamp reading "ARCHIVE RODIN."
