About this work

A charcoal and graphite study on tan paper shows a row of figures with wings and rounded bodies arranged horizontally within a rectangular border. The figures overlap and are drawn with loose, repeated contour lines, suggesting a preparatory design for a decorative frieze. The work is attributed to Alfred George Stevens and is held by Wikimedia Commons.
