Zwei Frauen, die linke singend,(Two Women, the Left One Singing) [p. 49] 

"Zwei Frauen, die linke singend" (Two Women, the Left One Singing) is a pencil sketch on paper by German Expressionist artist Max Beckmann. The quick, gestural lines in this small drawing, possibly a study for a larger work, convey a sense of movement and energy. The figures are depicted in a simplified, almost caricatured style, characteristic of Beckmann’s work. While the date of the artwork is unknown, its style likely places it within Beckmann’s prolific career, during which he was known for his exploration of the human condition and his powerful, often distorted depictions of figures.
