"Prayer" is a pen and ink drawing by Rodolphe Bresdin, a French artist known for his detailed and intricate works. This drawing captures a solitary figure kneeling in prayer within the vaulted interior of a church. The artist utilizes hatching and cross-hatching techniques to depict the architectural details of the space and the soft folds of the woman's gown. The drawing's atmosphere of quiet contemplation and spiritual devotion makes it a poignant and evocative representation of the act of prayer.
