The Horoscope
A pencil-like sketch of a woman in a long draped gown leans forward at a low table, her head bent toward a small object in her hands. A faint shelf or tabletop and a few lines of a horizontal base frame her figure against the pale paper. The drawing is loose and economical, with soft grey tones.
