This graphite sketch, "Reclining Female, Leaning on Left Elbow," was created by American Abstract Expressionist artist Mark Rothko, known for his large-scale color-field paintings. This small-scale drawing is an example of his earlier work, executed in a gestural and expressive style, focusing on the human figure. The sketch features a woman reclining on her left elbow, with her body outlined in swift, flowing lines. The loose, unrefined quality of the drawing captures a sense of movement and spontaneity characteristic of Rothko's early work.
