2nd Exhibition of the Humorists 1911

This drawing, "2nd Exhibition of the Humorists", created by Jean-Louis Forain in 1911, depicts a nude female figure in a dynamic pose. The figure is depicted in a loose, gestural style, utilizing red-brown ink on paper. The artist's use of line and shading creates a sense of movement and energy, highlighting the figure's expressive form. The sketch-like nature of the piece, with visible underdrawing, provides a glimpse into Forain's creative process. The work is a testament to Forain's keen observation of the human figure and his masterful command of line. This artwork is housed at The Art Institute of Chicago.
