Carl Felkel Signed Female Nude Charcoal Drawing, Framed
A striking signed female nude life study by Carl Felkel, executed in charcoal on paper.
The kneeling figure is viewed predominantly from behind, rendered with fluid, economical line and expressive shading. The drawing retains the immediacy of a studio life study, combining bold dark passages with lighter gestural marks and areas of exposed paper.
