1925 Drawing Study of Facial Profiles by Julia T. Crawford, Unframed

This drawing study from 1925 consists of six pencil sketches, each depicting various stages of a facial profile, explicitly focusing on the nose and lips. The sketches are delicately rendered within rectangular frames, showcasing subtle lines and shading techniques. The progression of the study moves from minimal outlines and contours in some squares, like in sketches 1 and 6, to more detailed and shaded renderings in others, such as sketches 2 and 5. The artist carefully explores the curvature of the nose and mouth, using light hatching to add depth and definition, particularly evident in the lips in sketch 3 and the detailed nose and upper lip in sketch 5. The overall composition emphasizes precision and observation, focusing on capturing the anatomical subtleties of facial features.
