Standing Female Nude with Hands on Hips 

This pencil sketch titled "Standing Female Nude with Hands on Hips" was created by American artist Mark Rothko. While Rothko is best known for his abstract color-field paintings, his early works often explored figuration. The drawing exhibits a gestural style, capturing a sense of movement in the nude figure. Its simplicity and focus on form demonstrate Rothko's early exploration of the human form.
