Miss Cumberlege

James McNeill Whistler, 1882

The image shows a person depicted in sketch form. The person is seated in a relaxed position, with most of the upper body visible. Their facial features are outlined, with a gentle expression and short, cropped hair. They are wearing a long garment, likely a dress or robe, with dynamic sketch lines suggesting folds and texture. The surrounding environment is represented with sketchy lines, hinting at furniture or domestic objects in the background but without clear definition. There is a small, round object on a flat surface to the person's left. The sketched background consists of vertical and horizontal lines, evoking a sense of an interior setting but remaining abstract.
