"Woman in Court Dress" is a charcoal drawing by German artist Adolph Menzel. The work depicts a woman in a low-cut dress, her right shoulder exposed. The woman is seated, with her right arm resting on her lap and holding a fan. The drawing's loose, gestural lines capture the sitter's form with a sense of immediacy and informality, highlighting the artist's mastery of depicting light and shadow. Menzel was known for his realistic and often intimate portrayals of everyday life, and this drawing is characteristic of his style.
