Louise Nevelson

The Garden
1951

An etching with abstract and geometric shapes, predominantly in black ink on a cream-colored paper. The image has a dark, textured background with lighter etched lines and shapes that create a sense of depth and movement. The paper shows signs of age with some discoloration and markings around the edges. There are handwritten inscriptions along the bottom edge of the paper.
