Profile Beneath the Ponytail

Czóbel Béla: szénrajz 28 x 36 cm: Női portré -1950 körül . A cropped, stylized portrait presents a woman in three-quarter profile, her sweeping ponytail and broad brim-like hair mass framing the face. Strong, economical contours define the arched brow, lowered lashes, nose, lips, neck, and bare shoulder, while dense graphite shading gives the hair and garment a softly textured weight. The dotted necklace introduces a delicate decorative rhythm against the warm brown paper, and the upward tilt of the head lends the figure a poised, self-contained presence.
