Farewell
1931

A black and white illustration of a classical figure, possibly a woman, standing on a rocky outcrop with her right arm raised in a waving gesture. She is draped in a flowing gown and cloak, and her hair is styled up. The background is a simple, shaded sky. Below the image, handwritten text reads "Farewell - RKRS" and there are signatures of the artist. The paper on which the illustration is printed has ample white space around the image.
