Portrait of N.V.Poroshina, a pupil of N.Sklifosovsky’s school 1914

Zygmunt Waliszewski's 1914 pencil drawing, "Portrait of N.V. Poroshina," depicts a young woman in profile, likely a student at N. Sklifosovsky’s school. The artist's delicate lines capture the subject's thoughtful expression and emphasize the contours of her face and form. Executed in a realist style, this portrait showcases the artist's skill in rendering subtle details and capturing a sense of individuality. Waliszewski, a Polish artist, created a range of works throughout his career, including portraits, landscapes, and still lifes. This work, though a quick sketch, provides insight into his artistic approach and his attention to human likeness.
