La Clownesse assise

The picture shows a figure drawing of a cabaret dancer sitting on a pink couch. She has white make-up on her face, a large yellow feather-like collar and a black outfit. The woman has her legs spread to the sides and is observing two other people in the background interacting at a colored wall. The bottom of her costume resembles a stocking, and the overall impression is distinctive and theatrical. The background is blurred and appears alive, with hinted contours of other figures.
