Seated Woman 

"Seated Woman" is a graphite drawing by American artist Mark Rothko, known for his abstract expressionist color field paintings. The drawing depicts a woman in a seated pose, rendered in loose and expressive lines, characteristic of Rothko's early work. The gestural nature of the lines and the subtle shading contribute to the feeling of movement and form. This sketch exemplifies Rothko's exploration of figuration before his later abstract works, and his evolving style is evident in the minimal detail and focus on the figure's essence.
