"Study for 'The Odyssey'" is a 1963 ink drawing on paper by American artist Howard Warshaw (1920-1977). The artwork, a preliminary sketch for a larger work, captures a dynamic pose of a figure reaching upward. The gestural lines and expressive hatching create a sense of movement and energy, hinting at the drama of Homer's epic poem. Warshaw's use of line to define form and evoke emotion is characteristic of his style, which often explored themes of mythology and human experience.
