Siddende klovn med hat, vendt mod venstre. 1908 - 1909

This expressive pencil drawing by French artist Othon Friesz, created between 1908 and 1909, depicts a seated clown wearing a hat. The figure's posture is relaxed, conveying a sense of ease and perhaps even melancholy. The artist's loose, gestural lines capture the essence of the subject, highlighting the clown's sorrowful expression and the unique folds of their clothing. The work exemplifies Friesz's masterful use of line and his interest in capturing the human figure in a spontaneous and expressive manner. This intimate drawing provides a glimpse into the artist's personal artistic process and captures the fleeting moments of human emotion.
