Study of Cupid (Head of a Girl) 1904

"Study of Cupid (Head of a Girl)" is a 1904 drawing by Alphonse Legros, a French-born artist known for his realistic and often melancholic depictions. The artwork captures a youthful face in pencil, the delicate lines revealing the artist's keen observation. The subject's serene expression and the soft, detailed rendering of the hair and features contribute to a sense of intimacy and vulnerability. This piece, like many of Legros' works, emphasizes the beauty of ordinary life and the subtle emotions that it holds.
