While we're on the subject of Draper's figure studies, here's a classic sketch for his painting Day & the Dawnstar. I've posted that painting and its oil study before, but I'm including the oil study again, for comparison.
I wasn't familiar with Herbert Draper until you posted these, and I've since seen many of his paintings. Thank you for drawing him to my attention. As someone noted, in addition to his figures, his faces are expressive.
