Untitled (Girl Reading) 1938

"Untitled (Girl Reading)" is a 1938 pencil drawing by Lorser Feitelson (1898-1978). It depicts a young woman lying down, her head resting on a book, seemingly asleep. The drawing is characterized by Feitelson's meticulous attention to detail and the use of chiaroscuro, a technique that creates a strong sense of volume and form through contrasts of light and shadow. The artist's signature can be seen in the bottom right corner of the drawing.
