Jaroslava Muchová (15 March 1909 – 9 November 1986) was a Czech painter, the daughter of painter Alphonse Mucha and the sister of writer and translator Jiří Mucha. Her father created this pencil drawing of her, on beige paper highlighted with white paint, probably around 1920. She sat for him on numerous occasions, and may have been bored by the experience, judging by the finger-tapping in this sketch. She studied ballet as a child, but eventually followed in the footsteps of her father, assisting him in his project of twenty monumental canvases known as The Slav Epic, depicting the history of all the Slavic peoples of the world. After World War II, she was instrumental in restoring these canvases, which had been wrapped and hidden away to prevent them being seized by the Nazis.Drawing credit: Alphonse Mucha
