John Taylor Arms in His Studio 1920

Eugene Higgins's pencil drawing "John Taylor Arms in His Studio" (1920) depicts a man in a studio setting. The man is sitting in a chair at a table, drawing or sketching on a large piece of paper. There is a window and a door to the left of the figure, with a stove and other objects in the background. The drawing is notable for its casual and gestural style and is considered an excellent example of Higgins's masterful use of graphite. Higgins was a prolific artist who specialized in portraits and figure studies, and this drawing is a testament to his skill and keen eye for observation.
