This is a study of a right foot and the profile of a nose and mouth by the French artist Narcisse-Virgilio Diaz. It is a quick sketch, likely done in preparation for a larger painting. The loose, expressive lines capture the essence of the forms, conveying both the physicality of the subject and the artist's keen eye for detail. The study's focus on anatomical detail is typical of 19th-century academic art, while the loose, almost gestural quality of the lines points towards a more modernist aesthetic.
