Drapery study 18th century

This anonymous 18th century drawing, "Drapery study," is a graphite study of fabric folds. The study is likely preparatory for a larger work, as it focuses solely on the subtle variations in light and shadow created by the draped fabric. The delicate, hatched lines and the use of graphite create a sense of depth and texture, giving viewers a glimpse into the artist's process and their understanding of form. This study can be viewed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst.
