The Sad Flute Player
1950

A black and white print featuring a stylized, abstract figure with a round body covered in scalloped patterns, a head with closed eyes and a flat top from which three teardrop shapes are suspended. The figure has elongated arms with intricate patterns, and it appears to be standing in a grassy area. The image has a textured, hand-drawn quality and is signed and dated by the artist in the lower right corner, with a dedication written in the lower left corner.
