“Sketch from Life,” by Estelle d’Avigdor.
This student was the winner in a prize competition lately in The Studio. She has undoubted ability, but not clearly in the direction of line drawing. After considerable success in painting, this student writes: “I still find the pen a difficult instrument to wield.”
In this sketch we see the influence of Aubrey Beardsley and others of the dense-black, reckless school of modern illustrators.
