Very nice sketches of characters. Representing different emotions, clothes and personalities. We have a portrait of a strong woman with arrows. Below this woman, there is a representation of oriental characters, also called barbarians during antiquity. Finally, on the left, another woman is represented with her head in her hands and sitting on a klismos chair. This chair is typical of the ancient period. It is written at the bottom right "march 15", surely the date of creation of this sketch.
the empire style and period are inspired by greco-roman art, it is called the neoclassical. The woman on this drawing wears an empire style dress recognizable by its very fashionable fitted bodice. A style established by josephine de beauharnais, the french empress of napoléon iii.
