"Sleeping Woman" is a 1926 etching by the German-American artist Werner Drewes, known for his expressive line work and stylized forms. This print depicts a woman with her head resting on her hand, her eyes closed, and her expression serene, capturing the essence of repose and tranquility. Drewes's use of hatching and cross-hatching creates a sense of depth and volume, adding dimension to the figure and its surroundings.
