This sketch by Nicolas Lancret depicts a clothed torso, likely a preparatory study for a larger composition. The faint lines suggest a figure in motion, possibly a dancer or theatrical performer, characteristic of Lancret's focus on Rococo themes of elegance and entertainment. Though the sketch is incomplete, it reveals the artist's quick and insightful approach to capturing movement and form.
