The artwork, titled Study for the Circus, is a black and white ink drawing created in 1949. The composition features a group of at least six individuals positioned in various states of action and repose. Some figures are depicted standing upright, while others are shown sitting or lying down. The subjects appear to be engaged in activities related to a circus performance or a gathering. The figures are rendered with bold, thick lines and simplified, stylized forms. The background of the piece is filled with abstract patterns and shapes.
This piece is a sketch and study executed using ink. It measures 50 x 32 cm. The work is currently housed at the Musee National Fernand Leger in Biot, France.
