Isabel Bishop Early Sketchbook c. 1928 - 1936

This sketchbook page by American artist Isabel Bishop contains multiple quick drawings of figures, likely from the bustling streets of New York City, which Bishop is known for capturing in her work. The loose, expressive lines and dynamic poses suggest her keen observation and skill in rendering movement and human interaction. Dating from the late 1920s to 1936, these sketches offer a glimpse into Bishop's creative process as she developed her signature style, which often depicted everyday scenes with a focus on social realism.
