I think you'd really benefit from seeing just how accurate you can get with that pose; I'm not sure how much you learned or improved your observation with that little study. Theres so much super valuable information in that statue that would benefit any artist if they sat down and really took their time building those forms as tightly as possible. The fabric, the anatomy, the pose, all that. It goes beyond doing a study for a studies sake, but actually gaining that knowledge; Give it a shot if you can work it in ;)

It can count as doing 1000 quick studies if you were to spend a few days studying something like that, matching the forms in line as best as you can :)
