John Marin

Artist, American, 1870 - 1953

The image shows a sketch composed of multiple outlines of heads, focusing primarily on facial profiles and hair. The bodies are not detailed beyond the necks, and the lines are loose. There are no discernible features that detail the faces significantly, but the hair is depicted as medium-length and appears to flow naturally around the heads. The clothing is not detailed, nor are there any distinguishable objects or jewelry present. The background is a plain, light-colored surface with some smudges and stains.
