Artist, German, 1884 - 1950

The image shows a sketch of a person from the head to just below the knees. The person is positioned standing and facing away, with one arm raised, touching their head. Their hair appears to be styled in an updo or bun, and specific facial features are not visible due to the angle. The person is wearing a sleeveless outfit that flows slightly below the waist, resembling a dress or tunic, with a jagged lower edge. There are no visible accessories or objects held by the person. The background is plain and lacks distinctive features, focusing attention solely on the sketch and its lines.
