Unfinished artwork.

Unfinished depiction of two women - are they proud or self-conscious? This quick sketch captures an attitude in the subjects as perceived by the artist, the pose could be 'look at me' or 'what do you think you are looking at?'. He did not complete the work. Date unknown, location unknown, presumably a nudist beach.
