"Seated Girl in a Landscape, to the Right" is a charcoal drawing by Paula Modersohn-Becker, created in 1902. The drawing depicts a young woman seated in profile, her gaze directed towards a simplified landscape that fills the right half of the composition. Modersohn-Becker’s expressive, gestural brushstrokes are visible in this work, emphasizing the figure’s contemplative pose. This drawing showcases her focus on capturing the essence of her subject, rather than precise detail.
