More InformationNotebook No.4 p.25. The rapid sketch of a woman's head on the verso may be a portrait of a fellow student, a friend or indeed a sister. The figure is clothed, and the hair-style with its fringe almost touching the eyebrows and the carefully modelled lips distinguish this sketch from Moore's life drawings or drawings connected with his ideas for sculpture.
