Standing an Sitting Gypsy Woman 

This charcoal drawing, "Standing and Sitting Gypsy Woman," depicts a woman standing with a second figure obscured by a cloud of charcoal in the foreground. The drawing, executed by Belgian artist James Ensor, is reminiscent of sketches and studies, highlighting the artist's interest in capturing the essence of the subject with loose strokes and a focus on form. Ensor, known for his satirical and symbolic works, may have chosen this subject to explore themes of social commentary and the marginalized.
