Tanzende Figur

Französische Grafik 1903–1929, 1905

A woman stands balanced on one foot and reaches overhead and holds the other foot with at least one arm in this vertical drawing on now-yellowed paper. The person is outlined in graphite and filled in loosely with a peach color. The head is sketched as a round circle with a few sweeping lines suggesting tendrils of hair. Graphite writing in the lower right corner reads, “homage a Madame K. Simpson A. Rodin 11 octobre 1905.”
