This expressive drawing titled *Woman Dancing with Her Head Thrown Back, rear view* is a study for one of Auguste Rodin's most famous sculptures, *The Kiss*. Rodin, a master of the human form, uses quick, gestural lines and light washes of watercolor to capture the dynamic movement of the dancer's body as she throws her head back in a moment of abandon. The work highlights Rodin's interest in exploring the power and expressiveness of the human body.
