Female (Pushkin) image 1975

"Female (Pushkin)" is a 1975 ink drawing by Ukrainian artist Hryhorii Havrylenko. It depicts a woman's head and shoulders against a dark background, rendered in a stippled, gridded style that contributes to the drawing's realistic qualities. Havrylenko's use of cross-hatching creates a sense of texture and depth, suggesting the woman's clothing and hair. The drawing is reminiscent of the style of portraiture popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
