This drawing, created by the American artist Mark Rothko, depicts a seated woman in a dynamic pose. The figure, rendered in bold black strokes, is contorted, with her left leg tucked under and her head resting on her left arm. This powerful depiction of the human form exemplifies Rothko's early work, which was influenced by Expressionism and the human condition. This piece, while created in the 1930s, foreshadows the minimalist aesthetic that Rothko would later be known for in his abstract paintings.
