Nude female figure holding left foot 1900 - 1912

This drawing by Auguste Rodin, a prominent French sculptor, is a study for his larger-than-life bronze sculpture "The Kiss," created between 1900 and 1912. Rodin is known for his expressive and realistic depictions of the human form, which are often characterized by an emphasis on movement and texture. In this drawing, Rodin utilizes both charcoal and watercolor to create a sense of volume and depth in the female figure's body. This drawing is part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's permanent collection in New York City.
