Kneeling Figures Huddled Together n.d.

This ink drawing by George Romney, created sometime in the 18th century, depicts a group of figures huddled together in a prayerful pose. The artist’s expressive, gestural brushstrokes create a sense of movement and energy, highlighting the figures’ intense emotion. The composition is dominated by the central figure, whose head is tilted back in a gesture of supplication. The other figures, while less prominent, add to the overall sense of devotion and togetherness. This drawing is a testament to Romney’s skill as a draftsman and his ability to capture the human form in a dynamic and expressive way.
