Shadow Dance
1930

A black and white etching depicting a group of people walking along a city street, with the sun casting long shadows on the pavement. The scene is likely from an earlier era, as suggested by the style of the pedestrians' clothing. The foreground shows a prominent female figure in motion, while the background features buildings and a corner street sign indicating "34 St. Park Ave." The artist's signature is visible in the lower right corner.
