Woman Leaning Forward 1888 - 1891

"Woman Leaning Forward" is a pencil sketch by Paul Cézanne, created between 1888 and 1891. This intimate drawing showcases Cézanne's signature style, characterized by bold lines and simplified forms. The subject, a woman's head and shoulders, is rendered in a fluid, expressive manner, capturing the essence of the figure rather than focusing on precise detail. The work is a testament to Cézanne's mastery of line and composition, making it a compelling study of the human form.
