Extracting the Essential Gesture and Contour

This is a drawing by Durer. There are many drawings on the site, but this particular one stands out. The weight of the fabric on the figures arm is drawn beautifully. I found this to be a good example of extracting the essential gesture and contour. The series of contour lines really capture this young boys shape.
