"Two Women's Heads" is a delicate pencil sketch by the renowned English sculptor John Flaxman (1755-1826). The drawing features the profile of one woman and the frontal view of another, both depicted with a sense of classical grace. Flaxman's style, known for its linear clarity and emphasis on form, is evident in this preliminary study. The artist's deft hand is evident in the subtle shading and the delicate contours of the figures. While the lack of color and detail leaves room for interpretation, this simple sketch offers a glimpse into Flaxman's process and his mastery of human anatomy.
