A horizontally oriented graphite drawing, made with a pencil on beige paper, features gestural sketches of figures. On our right, a figure sits on a ledge with their torso angled toward the right. Below and to the left, another loose figure leans forward. Quick, thin lines suggest a background railing. These minimal strokes lack facial features and defined clothing, focusing on the fluid forms of the bodies within an architectural space.
