Associated Artworks

The image shows a charcoal drawing of a seated person in a side view. The figure's upper body is visible along with part of the legs. One knee is drawn up towards the chest, while the other leg is bent underneath. The person's head is slightly tilted forward. Facial features are not detailed, and the expression is obscured by shading. The person's hair is short and blends into the head's silhouette. The figure is depicted nude with a focus on body contours and shading instead of clothing. There are no accessories or objects shown. The background is plain and uncolored, emphasizing the subject. At the bottom left, there is a small red stamp with the text "ARCHIVIO CASTELBARCO RD."
