Artist, French, 1867 - 1947

The image shows a sketch of a person standing upright with arms crossed. Their head is slightly bowed, with a shadow over their face, making facial features unclear. The person has short, dark, slightly messy hair. The setting is implied by lines suggesting a room with textured walls and a tiled floor. The individual is not wearing clothing. A dark draped object hangs from the wall on the left. The sketch uses dark, expressive lines for contrast in a monochromatic palette.
