Portrait of Mrs. Hubbard (sketch) 

This is a sketch for a portrait of Mrs. Hubbard by American artist Thomas Eakins. The artwork, which is part of a private collection, features a seated woman dressed in dark clothing and a white fur shawl. The sketch's loose brushstrokes and painterly quality are characteristic of Eakins' approach to portraiture, which often prioritized capturing the essence of the sitter over photographic realism. Eakins is known for his realistic depictions of subjects from all walks of life, and his works often explored themes of anatomy, movement, and the human condition.
