DescriptionThis is a study sketch of a nude female figure holding a vase on her head. She has a classical contrapposto poise: with her left arm resting on her hip, while her right arm holds the vase on her head, her right leg is slightly bent and her hip is at an angle. The shading and highlighting is rendered in white.On View
