Study for Apollo 

This pencil drawing, titled "Study for Apollo" by American artist Elihu Vedder, depicts the Greek god Apollo. The study is characterized by Vedder's characteristic use of strong lines and a simplified style. The figure of Apollo is rendered in a realistic manner, with a focus on his musculature and the flow of his drapery. The background, though sparsely drawn, suggests a landscape setting, possibly referencing Apollo's association with the sun and the arts. Vedder's use of light and shadow creates depth and drama in the composition.
