Bohemian, probably a study for the painting 'Bohemian donuts vendors' 1856

"Bohemian, probably a study for the painting 'Bohemian donuts vendors'" is a graphite drawing by Alfred Dehodencq, created in 1856. The drawing features a single female figure, likely a Bohemian woman, rendered in loose, expressive strokes. The artist's use of graphite creates a sense of depth and texture, highlighting the folds of the woman's clothing. This study, a preparatory work for a larger painting, exemplifies Dehodencq's interest in capturing the essence of everyday life in 19th-century Europe, particularly the vibrant culture of Bohemia.
