Untitled
c. 1938–1946

A textured white sculpture of a human figure in a standing position with indistinct features, mounted on a grey wall. The figure appears to be covered in a thick, uneven layer of white material, obscuring details and giving it an abstract quality. Some areas of discoloration are visible on the surface.
