Woman in a Hammock

Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot, mid–19th century

This is a drawing of a hammock holding an object surrounded by abstract, flowing lines. The drawing shows a central feature, possibly an abstract representation of a figure within a hammock, made with freehand pencil lines. The background and surrounding space consist of simple, minimal, and expressive line work, which suggests a relaxed and tranquil setting with some shading and swirling elements around the hammock that appear to be foliage or a natural environment. The drawing's loose and sketchy style gives it an unfinished and spontaneous appearance.
