Bust of a Roman Woman and Statue of a Roman Man

Hubert Robert, probably c. 1754/1765

The image features two pencil sketches. The first sketch on the left shows a profile view of a bust with a head and partial shoulders. The facial features are depicted, including eyebrows, a nose, and lips. The hair is styled back. The second sketch on the right shows a full-body view of a standing figure in draped fabric, holding a piece of cloth with one hand raised. Simple objects are sketched near the figure's feet. Both sketches are on an off-white background with faint discolorations.
