Brief Description
Monochrome ink drawing of a seated robed figure, an upright object, and dark, smudged forms
Detailed Description
A monochrome ink drawing on light brown, aged paper depicts a seated figure on the right side, facing left. The figure, rendered with light, fluid lines, wears a loose robe with simple folds and has a visible head with minimal facial features. To the left of the figure, a vertical object with a slender stem and a rounded base, resembling a vase or a lamp, stands upright. Further left, and extending across the lower portion, are areas of dark, smudged ink, forming irregular shapes that suggest rocks, foliage, or abstract landscape elements. These dark forms contrast with the lighter, more defined lines of the figure. The upper portion is largely blank, revealing the texture and discoloration of the aged surface. Faint, small marks or characters are visible along the bottom edge.
