"Frieze of Warriors" is a pencil drawing by Thomas Stothard, a prominent English artist of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The drawing depicts a group of warriors in profile, with a focus on their anatomical structure and movement. Stothard's use of light, quick strokes and an emphasis on line creates a sense of dynamism and energy in the composition. This sketch is a study for a larger work and demonstrates Stothard's skill in capturing the human form. The artwork is currently housed in the Art Institute of Chicago.
