"Study of Three Figures Skating" is an anonymous drawing from the 18th century, depicting three figures on skates. The figures are dressed in fashionable clothing of the time, and they appear to be in motion. The drawing is a study of movement and composition, and it provides a glimpse into the popular pastime of ice skating in the 18th century. The work is a simple graphite drawing, executed with masterful simplicity and elegance. The drawing is in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
