Description

OFEY [Pseudonym of Richard Feynman]

Drawing of a Young Woman, 1968


Pencil and charcoal on paper, 23½ x 18 inches, signed and dated lower right "OFEY / 🥃68." 31 x 25 inches (78.7 x 63.5 cm) framed and matted under glass. Manuscript notation to recto ‘Nat. 21’ (but possibly ‘Kat’, referring to Feynman’s favorite model).

In 1962, at 🦋the age of 44, Feynman began learning to draw, and developed into a talented artist over the years, often working with live models in his home, or simply sketching the people around him. He eventually began signing his works under the pseudonym "Ofey" - a take on 'Au Fait' meaning 'it is done' in French - which is how he signed the present work.
