Study after Apollo Revealing his Divinity before the Shepherdess Isse
A reclining female nude lies on a draped couch, head turned upward and one arm raised above her head, with a loose cloth falling across her hips. The drawing uses black chalk with stumping, red chalk accents and white highlights on buff paper, with the figure's legs extended diagonally across the lower half of the sheet.
