This young linen maid, caught in the act of working, turns her head and looks intently to the left. It is this pose that links our drawing to the circle of Jean-Baptiste Greuze (1725-1805), so famous for his expressive profiles and heads. The omnipresence of everyday life does not detract from the grace of the model, whose right foot, nicely shod, protrudes from her thick dress.
Details:
- Sanguine.
- Sold framed.
- Some foxing.
- Old framer's label on the back.
